Top failures
Suspension arm pin/bush excessively worn 4.66%
Worn suspension arm bushes allow the wheel to move unpredictably, affecting steering, handling and tyre wear.
Position lamp not working 2.84%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Diesel engine warning light faulty 2.64%
A lit or non-working engine warning light can hide faults, so diagnosis is needed before buying.
Coil spring fractured or broken 2.37%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 1.96%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 1.85%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
