Top failures

  1. Dipped beam headlamp not working 2.66%

    A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.

  2. Stop lamp not working 2.25%

    A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.

  3. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.14%

    Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.

  4. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.73%

    Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.

  5. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.49%

    Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.

  6. Main beam headlamp not working 1.34%

    A failed main beam reduces night-time visibility on unlit roads, so the headlamp should be repaired promptly.

Common advisories

Tyre worn close to legal limit (11.93%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (7.42%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.82%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.68%) · Brake pads wearing thin (6.64%) · Brake discs showing some wear (3.01%)
