Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.1%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Reversing lamp not working 1.84%
A failed reversing lamp makes manoeuvring in the dark harder and is a fault that needs fixing.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.82%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.66%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.39%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Tyre pressure monitoring system faulty 0.32%
A faulty tyre pressure monitor cannot warn about low tyre pressure, so check tyres manually and have the fault diagnosed.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (7.49%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (4.22%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (2.87%) · Nail in tyre, monitor (1.49%) · Brake pads wearing thin (1.2%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.08%)
