When inspecting a vehicle's brake chamber, drivers should look for:
  1. This is a trick question; the brake chambers are not visible to drivers.
  2. Bubbles within the hose system
  3. Leaks, cracks, and severe dents
  4. None of the above
Explanation
Answer: C - When inspecting the brake chamber, drivers should always check for leaks, cracks, and severe dents. Brake chambers are always visible to drivers and are easy enough to check visually. Signs of leakage, as well as any sign of cracking, should be reported immediately. Failure to have these types of issues corrected may lead to sudden brake failure later on. Brake chambers are not normally dented. Signs of dents suggest that the chamber has been hit or struck by something, and that further inspection may be required.
