Vehicle Inspection第 12 / 120 题
You are inspecting the suspension on a trailer axle and find the main leaf of a leaf spring is broken. What is the correct action?
a.Place the vehicle out of service until the spring is repaired
b.Continue the trip but keep the load light
c.Continue and note the defect on tomorrow's report
d.Reduce tire pressure on that axle to compensate
解析
A broken main leaf is an out-of-service condition because the axle can shift and the load is no longer properly supported. Lightening the load, delaying the report, or changing tire pressure does nothing to restore the suspension's ability to hold the axle in place.
