Top failures
Tyre cut reaching ply or cords 1.37%
A cut reaching the ply or cords weakens the tyre and can cause a burst, so it must be replaced.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.26%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Brake discs significantly worn 0.98%
Heavily worn discs reduce braking performance and wear pads faster, so a replacement will soon be needed.
Tyre ply or cords exposed 0.88%
Exposed ply or cords can let the tyre fail suddenly, so the tyre must be replaced before the car is driven.
Tyre tread below 1.6mm 0.72%
Tread below 1.6mm is illegal and reduces grip in wet conditions, so the tyre must be replaced.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 0.55%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Common advisories
Brake disc pitted or scored (11.27%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (8.16%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (7.85%) · Brake pads wearing thin (4.24%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.93%) · Exhaust mounting defective (1.96%)
