Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.46%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.68%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 0.58%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Tyre pressure monitoring system faulty 0.39%
A faulty tyre pressure monitor cannot warn about low tyre pressure, so check tyres manually and have the fault diagnosed.
Headlamp aim set too high 0.29%
Headlamps aimed too high can dazzle other drivers, and adjusting them is usually a quick job.
Number plate does not meet standards 0.19%
The plate does not meet legal specifications, so it must be replaced with a compliant one before the car is driven.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (5.35%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (3.11%) · Brake pads wearing thin (2.33%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (2.04%) · Service brake slightly binding (0.78%) · Tyre showing slight damage (0.68%)
