Question 4737
What is the suspension system for?
- To prevent skidding.
- To move the wheels.
- To dampen vibrations and maintain the vehicle's stability.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: To dampen vibrations and maintain the vehicle's stability.
The suspension connects the wheels to the body. Its springs and shock absorbers absorb the impacts and vibrations from bumps and keep the wheels in contact with the ground, so the car stays stable and responds to steering. The engine and transmission drive the wheels.
