Top failures
Coil spring fractured or broken 13.55%
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 7.03%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Position lamp not working 6.99%
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 4.75%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.

A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Anti-roll bar linkage dust cover unsealed 3.26%
