Synopsis

Automotive Chassis Systems covers the fundamentals of advanced brake, steering and suspension systems. The text aligns with ASE learning objectives and is divided into two sections corresponding to ASE certification areas A4 and A5. Concise, easy-to-read chapters and step-by-step photo sequences simplify the learning process. This title is part of the Pearson Automotive Professional Technician Series.

The 9th Edition includes three new chapters, plus added visuals and case studies. It was updated throughout to align with current ASE standards. A focus on diagnosis and problem-solving meets a need for more training in diagnostic procedures and skill development.
