Top failures
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 2.92%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.91%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.83%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 1.78%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 1.47%
Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.
Parking brake inoperative on one side 1.02%
The parking brake does not work on one side, so the car may not hold on a slope and needs repair.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (14.85%) · Brake pads wearing thin (13.66%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (8.94%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.64%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.13%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (3.35%)
