Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Parking brake inoperative on one side 6.33%
The parking brake does not work on one side, so the car may not hold on a slope and needs repair.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 5.79%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Coil spring fractured or broken 3.62%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Parking brake efficiency under half required 3.5%
The parking brake is well below required strength and is unlikely to hold the car on a slope.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 3.44%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 2.96%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Common advisories
Brake pads wearing thin (12.91%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (9.83%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (5.85%) · Suspension ball joint slight play (3.92%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (2.77%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (2.71%)
