Top failures
Stop lamp not working 7.84%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 4.99%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.74%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.39%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Coil spring fractured or broken 3.05%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 2.32%
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 (18.18%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (12.97%) · Brake pads wearing thin (12.41%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (9.76%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (5.95%) · Brake discs showing some wear (4.72%)
