Top failures

  1. Headlamp beam pattern obviously incorrect 6.84%

    A wrongly shaped beam can dazzle other drivers and reduce your own view of the road, so the lamps need correcting.

  2. Position lamp not working 6.6%

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

  3. Suspension mounting area seriously corroded 4.35%

    Corrosion near suspension mountings can seriously weaken the body structure, so an expert inspection is needed.

  4. Service brake excessively binding 4.07%

    A brake that drags when released can overheat, wear quickly and waste fuel, so it needs prompt inspection.

  5. Exhaust has major gas leak 3.87%

    A major exhaust leak can let poisonous gas into the car and is illegal, so it must be repaired before driving.

  6. Stop lamp not working 3.67%

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

Common advisories

Brake pipes corroded and greasy (17.16%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (15.59%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (11.69%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (10.08%) · Anti-roll bar linkage pin/bush worn (9.31%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (8.3%)
