Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.02%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.35%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.16%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre bulge from structural failure 0.72%
A bulge means the tyre's structure has failed and it could burst suddenly, so it must be replaced at once.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.72%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.68%
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 (13.54%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (9.59%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (8.53%) · Brake pads wearing thin (5.29%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.6%) · Anti-roll bar linkage pin/bush worn (1.83%)
