The record contains 19 passes and 10 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (26 issues), Brakes (12 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
