Top failures

  1. Headlamp aim set too low 1.58%

    Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.

  2. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.04%

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

  3. Windscreen washers not working 0.89%

    Without working washers the windscreen cannot be cleaned while driving, which is a safety risk in dirty weather.

  4. Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.78%

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

  5. Tyre bulge from structural failure 0.72%

    A bulge means the tyre's structure has failed and it could burst suddenly, so it must be replaced at once.

  6. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.69%

    Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.

Common advisories

Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (9.9%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (6.53%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (2.45%) · Brake discs showing some wear (1.91%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.37%) · Brake pads wearing thin (1.31%)
