Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.2%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.71%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.56%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Brake discs significantly worn 0.94%
Heavily worn discs reduce braking performance and wear pads faster, so a replacement will soon be needed.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.89%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.75%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (14.9%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (11.5%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.87%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.28%) · Anti-roll bar linkage pin/bush worn (2.63%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.61%)
