The record contains 12 passes and 7 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (19 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Windscreen (14 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Steering (7 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
