Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.45%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.36%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Stop lamp not working 1.29%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.9%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 0.8%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 0.73%
Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.
Common advisories
Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (12.71%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.82%) · Brake pads wearing thin (4.7%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (4.52%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (2.52%) · Service brake slightly binding (2%)
