Top failures
Position lamp not working 3.99%
A failed position lamp makes the car harder to see in poor light and is illegal, so it must be repaired.
Horn not working 3%
A non-working horn removes a key warning tool for other road users, so it must be repaired before driving.
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 2.81%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Direction indicator wrong colour 2.67%
An indicator showing the wrong colour may confuse other drivers, so the lens or bulb should be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 2.15%
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 1.71%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (15.65%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (12%) · Brake pads wearing thin (10.49%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (9.03%) · Brake pipes corroded and greasy (8.42%) · Suspension arm pin/bush showing wear (4.99%)
