Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.57%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Headlamp aim set too high 0.91%
Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.91%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.3%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.25%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre bulge from structural failure 0.22%
A bulge means the tyre's structure has failed and it could burst suddenly, so it must be replaced at once.
Common advisories
Brake disc pitted or scored (2.79%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (2.57%) · Brake pads wearing thin (1.3%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (1.19%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (1.05%) · Tyre has a shallow cut (1.05%)
