Top failures

  1. Suspension ball joint excessively worn 10.61%

    A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.

  2. Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 9.77%

    Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.

  3. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.63%

    Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.

  4. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.56%

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

  5. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.48%

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

  6. Position lamp not working 3.34%

    A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (15.9%) · Brake pads wearing thin (12.81%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (11.32%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (8.96%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (8.33%) · Track rod ball joint slight play (8.04%)
