Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.3%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.92%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.52%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 0.46%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.46%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Headlamp aim set too low 0.45%
Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (4.91%) · Brake pads wearing thin (2.6%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (1.73%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.29%) · Tyre has a shallow cut (1.22%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (0.87%)
