The record contains 15 passes and 8 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (20 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Steering (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
