Top failures
Rigid brake pipe excessively corroded 4.87%
Badly corroded brake pipes can leak or fail, which can cause a loss of braking, so repair is urgent.
Track rod end ball joint excessively worn 4.01%
Worn steering ball joints can affect steering control and safety, so repair is needed before the car is driven.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.55%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Position lamp not working 3.44%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
CV joint boot split or insecure 2.98%
A split CV boot lets dirt in and grease out, so the joint wears and may need full replacement.
Suspension ball joint excessively worn 2.64%
A worn ball joint can fail and cause loss of steering control, so it must be replaced promptly.
Common advisories
Brake pipes corroded and greasy (27.39%) · Slight play in steering rack joints (16.56%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (13.81%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (13.3%) · Coil spring showing some corrosion (6.76%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (6.36%)
