Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Stop lamp not working 7.07%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Position lamp not working 6.53%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
CV joint boot split or insecure 4.39%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 3.96%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.83%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 3.38%
Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.
Common advisories
Engine oil leak, not excessive (19.75%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (18.67%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (12.84%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (9.19%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.17%) · Exhaust has minor gas leak (5.07%)
