Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.79%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Headlamp aim set too high 1.25%
Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 0.72%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 0.72%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Headlamp aim set too low 0.57%
Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.
Airbag warning lamp shows fault 0.57%
A lit airbag warning means the airbag system may not deploy in a crash, so it needs diagnosing and repairing.
Common advisories
Brake pads wearing thin (1.74%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.74%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (1.25%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (0.91%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (0.91%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (0.6%)
