The record contains 9 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (18 issues), Suspension (14 issues), Brakes (13 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
