Top failures
Position lamp not working 5.46%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 5.02%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Rear fog lamp not working 4.51%
A failed rear fog lamp reduces visibility in fog and leaves you less visible to following traffic, so repair it.
Coil spring fractured or broken 4.29%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 3.78%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 3.42%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
