Top failures
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.32%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.24%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.16%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.93%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.44%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 0.27%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.55%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.93%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.87%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (3.64%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (1.68%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.5%)
