Top failures
Dipped beam headlamp not working 2.6%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.18%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.75%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.59%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Registration plate lamp not working 1.41%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Main beam headlamp not working 1.3%
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 (11.4%) · Brake pads wearing thin (6.93%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.71%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.39%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (6.18%) · Brake discs showing some wear (3.07%)
