Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.79%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Dipped beam headlamp not working 2.07%
A failed dipped beam makes it hard to see and be seen at night, so the lamp needs fixing before driving.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.95%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Main beam headlamp not working 1.15%
A failed main beam reduces night-time visibility on unlit roads, so the headlamp should be repaired promptly.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.09%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.8%
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 (12.35%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (9.42%) · Brake pads wearing thin (8.56%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (7.18%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.7%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (2.07%)
