Top failures

  1. Coil spring fractured or broken 10.31%

    A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.

  2. Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 5.77%

    Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.

  3. Suspension ball joint excessively worn 2.65%

    A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.

  4. Position lamp not working 2.49%

    A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.

  5. Parking brake efficiency below minimum 2.41%

    The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.

  6. Parking brake inoperative on one side 1.86%

    The parking brake does not work on one side, so the car may not hold on a slope and needs repair.

Common advisories

Brake disc pitted or scored (19.23%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (9.44%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (6.52%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.09%) · Track rod ball joint slight play (4.98%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (4.03%)
