Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 5.48%
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%
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 1.75%
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 1.41%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Main beam headlamp not working 1.04%
A failed main beam reduces night-time visibility on unlit roads, so the headlamp should be repaired promptly.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.98%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (11.48%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.38%) · Brake pads wearing thin (6.14%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (5.94%) · Child seat limits belt inspection (2.03%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.76%)
