What Citroen C4 Grand Picasso failures look like

The most frequent problems were with brakes on 5 tests (45.5%), with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 5 tests (45.5%) and with visibility on 1 test (9.1%). A test can fail on more than one thing, and an MOT can be failed on one defect while another is only advised, so these counts do not add up to the number of tests.
