Top failures
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.84%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.61%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.38%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Headlamp aim set too high 0.29%
Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.
Brake pads worn to wear indicator 0.23%
Pads worn to the indicator are at their limit, reducing braking and needing immediate replacement.
Tyre bulge from structural failure 0.21%
A bulge means the tyre's structure has failed and it could burst suddenly, so it must be replaced at once.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (6.61%) · Brake pads wearing thin (2.1%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (1.29%) · Tyre has a shallow cut (1.26%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.22%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.14%)
