Question 1

As a general rule, vehicle straightening is needed whenever the damage involves any of the following EXCEPT:

Accepted Answer

The strut plate is not typically involved in vehicle straightening, which usually concerns structural components like the suspension, steering, and powertrain mounting points.

Question 2

While having a discussion, Technician A says that one of the signs of stress on unibody cars is a misaligned door.Technician B says that dents and buckles in aprons and rails are signs of stress.Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

Both technicians are correct. Misaligned doors can indicate stress or damage to a unibody structure, and dents and buckles in aprons and rails are also signs of stress in the vehicle's frame.

Question 3

All of the following are components of a portable hydraulic ram system EXCEPT:

Accepted Answer

A sill plate is not a component of a portable hydraulic ram system; it is part of building construction.

Question 4

Question 5

____________________ equipment holds the vehicle stationary during pulling and measuring.

Accepted Answer

The answer of ____________________ equipment holds the vehicle stationary during...

Question 6

____ is done by pulling the damage a few millimeters beyond its original dimension.

Accepted Answer

Overpulling involves pulling the damaged area of a vehicle a few millimeters beyond its original dimension to ensure that when it settles, it aligns correctly with the vehicle's original form.

Question 7

Which of the following statements is LEAST-Likely true?

Accepted Answer

Hydraulic rams are tools used for applying a large force over a small distance, not for snapping onto door locks and strikers. This description does not accurately represent the function of a hydraulic ram, making it the least likely true statement.

Question 8

The best way to monitor heat application is with a ____.

Accepted Answer

A heat crayon is specifically designed to melt or change color at a certain temperature, making it an effective tool for monitoring heat application.

Question 9

While having a discussion, Technician A says that if stress is not removed from a panel and a second collision occurs, less force is required to cause the same or greater damage and could endanger the occupants of the vehicle.Technician B says that the vehicle could dimensionally distort, causing handling problems.Who is correct?

Accepted Answer

Both technicians are correct. Technician A is correct in stating that unrepaired stress can lead to greater damage from less force in a subsequent collision, potentially endangering occupants. Technician B is correct in stating that dimensional distortion from unrepaired damage can cause handling problems.
