Top failures
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.99%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 3.81%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
CV joint boot split or insecure 3.26%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.05%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Coil spring fractured or broken 2.95%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Registration plate lamp not working 2.88%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (17.89%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.84%) · Brake pads wearing thin (9.64%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (4.4%) · Brake discs showing some wear (3.56%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (3.1%)
