Top failures
Stop lamp not working 9.02%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Position lamp not working 8.73%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Coil spring fractured or broken 6.88%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 5.55%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
CV joint boot split or insecure 5.54%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 4.66%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (21.5%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (13.72%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (13.61%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (13.6%) · Brake pads wearing thin (8.59%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (5.73%)
