Top failures
Position lamp not working 4.73%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 2.81%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 2.04%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Coil spring fractured or broken 1.79%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 1.78%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.65%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (15.02%) · Brake pads wearing thin (11.82%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.16%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (5.3%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (4.38%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (3.34%)
