2025 periodic inspections recorded 12,030 defects leading to a failure across 26,888 inspections. The remaining 13 % of defects fall under other items. The single most common defect item was etuakselisto (2,017 failures). Most advisories concerned lights and electrics (7,423).
Figures count defects, not cars: a failed car often has several defects. Shares are calculated from all defects leading to a failure.
Failure rates are not directly comparable between models because typical mileage differs.
