Top failures
Coil spring fractured or broken 7.99%
A broken coil spring can leave the car sitting low or unstable, so it must be replaced before driving.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 2.73%
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 1.36%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Windscreen washers not working 1.08%
Without working washers the windscreen cannot be cleaned while driving, which is a safety risk in dirty weather.
Tyre pressure monitoring system faulty 1.03%
A faulty tyre pressure monitor cannot warn about low tyre pressure, so check tyres manually and have the fault diagnosed.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.99%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (12.93%) · Brake pads wearing thin (9.78%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (6.54%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.23%) · Brake discs showing some wear (3.01%) · Engine oil leak, not excessive (3.01%)
