Top failures
Stop lamp not working 10.12%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 4.78%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
Registration plate lamp not working 4.48%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 4.29%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.62%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
CV joint boot split or insecure 3.16%
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 (22.5%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (13%) · Brake pads wearing thin (9.76%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (4.41%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (4%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (3.76%)
