Top failures
Position lamp not working 10.52%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 9.36%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Coil spring fractured or broken 4.72%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint worn 4.67%
A worn linkage ball joint can rattle, affect handling and eventually fail, so it should be replaced.
Stop lamp not working 4.5%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Registration plate lamp not working 4.41%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
