Top failures

Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.

A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 6.37%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Stop lamp not working 4.29%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint worn 3.08%
A worn linkage ball joint can rattle, affect handling and eventually fail, so it should be replaced.
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 3.02%
