An automobile has a history of radiator leaks due to corrosion. The same car was found to have engine failure due to overheating that increased with the age of the vehicle. This is an example of: (a.) Classical component failure (b.) Wear-out failure. (c.) Common mode failure. (d.) System-wide failure

    Answer: a) Classical component failure

    Explanation: Classical component failure is considered as the failure that occurs in the electronic components. Radiator leak occurring in automobile vehicle due to the corrosion caused by components which results in coolant of the radiator to flow out or leak.

    Due to over heating of automobile parts, damaged condition of vehicle, engine destruction etc can lead to the corrosion of the radiator due to which radiator leak can happen. Thus, it is a type of common component failure.

    Other options are incorrect because wear-out failure occurs due to exhaustion of the automobile parts which create difficulty in execution of vehicle, common-mode failure is defined for causing damage to other parts because of one event and system-wide failure that occurs in complete vehicle. Thus, the correct option is option (a).
