Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both technicians are correct. An excessive thrust angle can indeed cause poor directional stability, especially on slippery surfaces like ice, snow, or wet pavement, as it affects the vehicle's ability to travel straight. It can also lead to increased tire wear because the tires are not aligned properly, causing uneven contact with the road.
