Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
CV joint boot split or insecure 2.66%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 2.52%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.93%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.46%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint worn 1.45%
A worn linkage ball joint can rattle, affect handling and eventually fail, so it should be replaced.
Coil spring fractured or broken 1.35%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (15.38%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (10.86%) · Brake pads wearing thin (8.83%) · Linkage ball joint slight play (4.55%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (3.29%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (3.17%)
