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 Skoda Felicia tests most often, as a share of all tests.
| Failure | Tests | Cars the same age | vs same age | Marked dangerous |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Component mounting prescribed areas: prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural strength Suspension | 6.9% | 4.1% | 1.7× | 0.0% |
| Joints: constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt Body and structure | 6.6% | 2.2% | 3.0× | 0.0% |
| Service brake imbalance: across an axle Brakes | 4.3% | 1.8% | 2.4× | 0.0% |
| Exhaust system: has a major leak of exhaust gases Body and structure | 3.3% | 2.0% | 1.7× | 0.0% |
| Wipers: does not clear the windscreen effectively Visibility (wipers, glass, mirrors) | 3.3% | 3.0% | 1.1× | 0.0% |
| Headlamp aim: too low Lights and electrics | 3.2% | 1.7% | 1.9× | 0.0% |
| Position lamp: not working Lights and electrics | 2.9% | 3.4% | 0.9× | 0.0% |
| Rigid brake pipes: excessively corroded Brakes | 2.9% | 1.7% | 1.7× | 0.0% |
| Catalyst emissions: Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits Emissions and leaks | 2.7% | 2.2% | 1.2× | 0.0% |
| Catalyst emissions: carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle exceeds manufacturer's specified limits Emissions and leaks | 2.7% | 1.6% | 1.7× | 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.
Most common advisories
Things the tester noted to watch, which don’t fail the test.
| Advisory | Tests |

| Tread depth: worn close to legal limit/worn on edge | 13.4% |
| Condition: slightly damaged/cracking or perishing | 11.9% |
| Wheel bearings: has slight play | 10.6% |
| Exhaust system: has a minor leak of exhaust gases | 10.4% |
| Registration plates: deteriorated but not likely to be misread | 8.6% |
| Brake discs: worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened | 7.8% |
| Pins and bushes: pin or bush worn but not resulting in excessive movement | 7.8% |
