Question 8269

To maintain safety, which components should be checked periodically and more often than the rest of the vehicle's components?

  1. The tires, the braking system and the shock absorbers.
  2. The lights, the battery and the wheels.
  3. The air filter, the steering and the rearview mirrors.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The tires, the braking system and the shock absorbers.

Tires, brakes, and shock absorbers are the active safety components that need the closest attention, because grip, braking, and stability depend on them. Check your tire pressure about every 15 days and your brake fluid level every week. In the image, a mechanic is checking the brake disc and shock absorber at a rear wheel.
