Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.26%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.54%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Headlamp aim set too low 0.27%
Headlamps aimed too low light the road poorly and reduce the driver's view ahead, especially at night.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 0.27%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Headlamp aim set too high 0.18%
Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.18%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (4.34%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (4.16%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (0.72%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (0.54%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (0.45%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (0.27%)
