Top failures
Position lamp not working 6.94%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Stop lamp not working 4.62%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 3.71%
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 3.66%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 2.41%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 2.23%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (14.31%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.23%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (5.86%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (3.69%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (3.52%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (2.84%)
