Top failures

  1. Suspension arm pin/bush excessively worn 1.56%

    Worn suspension arm bushes allow the wheel to move unpredictably, affecting steering, handling and tyre wear.

  2. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.33%

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

  3. Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.22%

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

  4. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.01%

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

  5. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 0.74%

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

  6. Horn not working 0.51%

    A non-working horn removes a key warning tool for other road users, so it must be repaired before driving.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (9.54%) · Brake pads wearing thin (9.46%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.72%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (7.09%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (6.97%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (4.29%)
