Top failures

  1. Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.73%

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

  2. Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.43%

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

  3. Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.39%

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

  4. Brake discs significantly worn 0.8%

    Heavily worn discs reduce braking performance and wear pads faster, so a replacement will soon be needed.

  5. Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.77%

    A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.

  6. Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.7%

    Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.

Common advisories

Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (14.58%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.1%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (9.83%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.21%) · Anti-roll bar linkage pin/bush worn (3%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.38%)
