Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 4.93%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.3%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.83%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Headlamp aim set too low 0.52%
Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.47%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Parking brake efficiency below minimum 0.4%
The parking brake holds the car less well than required, so it may roll on a slope and needs repair.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.87%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (7.7%) · Brake pads wearing thin (2.73%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (1.42%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.31%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.3%)
