Where they fail
Share of tests with at least one failure in each area, against cars of the same age.
A test can fail in more than one area. Failures fixed during the test are included.
Most common failures
The 10 defects that failed Citroen AMI tests most often, as a share of all tests.
| Failure | Tests | Cars the same age | vs same age | Marked dangerous |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Headlamp aim: too low Lights and electrics | 2.4% | 0.5% | 4.8× | 0.0% |
| Rear fog lamp: missing Lights and electrics | 1.4% | 0.0% | – | 0.0% |
| Washers: not working Visibility (wipers, glass, mirrors) | 1.4% | 0.4% | 3.5× | 0.0% |
| Washers: provides insufficient washer liquid Visibility (wipers, glass, mirrors) | 1.4% | 0.6% | 2.3× | 0.0% |
| Registration plate lamp(s): inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps Lights and electrics | 0.9% | 0.2% | 4.5× | 0.0% |
| Reversing lamps: inoperative Lights and electrics | 0.9% | 0.0% | – | 0.0% |
| Stop lamp: not working Lights and electrics | 0.9% | 0.2% | 4.5× | 0.0% |
| Chassis condition: or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of a body mounting Body and structure | 0.5% | 0.2% | 2.5× | 0.0% |
| Headlamp aim: projected beam image is obviously incorrect Lights and electrics | 0.5% | 0.2% | 2.5× | 0.0% |
| Headlamp: not working on main beam Lights and electrics | 0.5% | 0.1% | 5.0× | 0.0% |
“vs same age” compares this model with cars of the same age: 2.0× means twice as often. “Marked dangerous” is how often the tester recorded that failure as dangerous.
