Top failures

  1. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 2.55%

    Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.

  2. Tyre pressure monitoring system faulty 1.86%

    A faulty tyre pressure monitor cannot warn about low tyre pressure, so check tyres manually and have the fault diagnosed.

  3. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.57%

    Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.

  4. Stop lamp not working 1.4%

    A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.

  5. Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 1.16%

    Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.

  6. Coil spring fractured or broken 0.95%

    A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.09%) · Brake pads wearing thin (9.25%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (5.98%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (5.74%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (2.42%) · Linkage ball joint slight play (1.73%)
