Top failures
Coil spring fractured or broken 12.48%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 8.18%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Position lamp not working 6.37%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 3.91%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Stop lamp not working 3.51%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 2.86%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
