IIHS/HLDI just released eye-opening data: Vehicles equipped with safety systems saw significantly fewer crashes and insurance claims in 2023. Behind these numbers are real families who made it home safely. However, crash-avoidance technologies only work when they are properly calibrated after repairs. That's why we built Revv - to make sure every safety system repair is done right, every time. With vehicle accidents still among the leading causes of death in the US, proper calibration isn't just about fixing cars - it's about preventing life-threatening accidents.

🦉Wise Wednesday🦉 Dangerous, major, minor, advisory… What is your fault and what does it mean for your MOT? Since May 2018, DVSA changed the way defect categories are applied to all MOT tests. For a vehicle to be driven on Great Britain’s roads there are 2 main legal safety requirements for the vehicle. It must be roadworthy and for most vehicles of a certain age, it must have a valid MOT. Whilst they're connected, they're not the same thing, and they both have to be met independently. So, even if a vehicle is roadworthy, it may not necessarily have an MOT. And similarly, just because a vehicle has an MOT, it doesn’t automatically mean it’s roadworthy. It may have a defect that has come about after the MOT. Currently, a vehicle will either pass or fail its MOT. Testers can then mark defects they believe are dangerous from pre-defined list. Defects that are failure items but aren’t deemed as ‘dangerous’ will be called ‘major’ defects. There is also a ‘minor’ category, where there’s a defect on the vehicle, but it isn’t serious enough for the vehicle to fail. You may also receive Advisories, these are very similar to minor defects but rather than a component already being defective, they indicate a component will become defective soon. Remember, if you fail your #MOT with us, you don't have to pay! We don't think you should have to pay to fail, its already disappointing enough!
