Average for cars of the same age and mileage

Top failures

  1. Tyre ply or cords exposed 2.18%

    Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.

  2. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.15%

    Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.

  3. Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.94%

    A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.

  4. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.47%

    Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.

  5. Headlamp aim set too high 1.39%

    Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.

  6. Dipped beam headlamp not working 1.23%

    A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.

Common advisories

Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (12.71%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.04%) · Brake pads wearing thin (7.9%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.23%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (3.53%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.9%)
