Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Registration plate lamp not working 3.34%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 1.64%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 1.41%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Plate lamp not lit with position lamps 1.17%
The plate lamp must light with the position lamps, so this fault is illegal and should be corrected.
Rear fog lamp not working 1.11%
A failed rear fog lamp reduces visibility in fog and leaves you less visible to following traffic, so repair it.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (6.51%) · Brake pads wearing thin (2.81%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (1.64%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.52%) · Shock absorber light oil misting (1.17%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (1.06%)
