Top failures
Stop lamp not working 9.07%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Position lamp not working 8.86%
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 5.8%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 4.75%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 4.64%
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 4.41%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (22.27%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (16.73%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (13.75%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (13.66%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.74%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (5.15%)
