Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 0.99%
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 0.84%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Tyre bulge from structural failure 0.81%
A bulge means the tyre's structure has failed and it could burst suddenly, so it must be replaced at once.
Stop lamp not working 0.76%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.7%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.49%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (7.2%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (6.1%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (5.51%) · Brake pads wearing thin (3.49%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (2.82%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2%)
