Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.48%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre bulge from structural failure 1.28%
A bulge means the tyre's structure has failed and it could burst suddenly, so it must be replaced at once.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.15%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.82%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake discs significantly worn 0.66%
Heavily worn discs reduce braking performance and wear pads faster, so a replacement will soon be needed.
Headlamp aim set too low 0.5%
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 (7.9%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.1%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.87%) · Brake pads wearing thin (3.76%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.38%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (1.96%)
