What are the effective measures to prevent vehicle failure?
2 Answers
To effectively prevent brake failure in motor vehicles, it is necessary to regularly maintain the brake system; check the free travel of the brake pedal before driving; use the brakes correctly to prevent thermal fade; for vehicles with hydraulic brakes, check for any leakage of brake fluid before driving. Relevant information about braking is as follows: 1. Introduction: Refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of running locomotives, vehicles, other transport tools, or machinery. 2. Principle: The general principle of braking is to fix a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and install corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base to generate braking torque under external force.
As a veteran driver with over a decade of experience, I don't think preventing vehicle failure is as difficult as it seems. The key is to develop a habit of daily checks—walk around the car before each trip to see if the tire pressure is normal and whether the wear is severe; listen for any strange engine noises and check if the temperature gauge is stable. Change the oil and filters regularly to avoid engine overheating or excessive wear. Don’t forget the braking system—check the brake pad thickness and hydraulic fluid periodically, as safety comes first. In summer, pay attention to the coolant, and in winter, monitor the battery condition to prevent sudden breakdowns. Keep an emergency kit in the car with some tools and a reflective warning triangle for emergencies. These small actions don’t cost much but can keep your car running longer and more reliably, saving you from unnecessary trouble.
