Classification of Vehicle Breakdowns

There is always a possibility of breakdowns in any mechanical vehicle. In case of emergency vehicle breakdown you need to diagnose the problem by your own or call a service provider from your area but before you hire a service provider you need to identify the level of breakdown. Here I am going to elaborate two major levels of breakdowns on which basis you should decide where you should search for help.

Level Of Breakdowns:

Partial Breakdown: 
Total Breakdown: 

Partial Breakdown: In partial breakdown your vehicle may still be operable, but moving with partial breakdown can cause for a big fault in your vehicle or can damage the vehicle so badly. Often when such breakdown occurs, there’s a chance to drive your vehicle to the nearest garage that could save you from towing charges. Some time it may be risky because a minor fault could be big one because of the driving in breakdowns. Some common causes of partial breakdown include overheating, brake failure or frequent stalling.

Total Breakdown: A breakdown is called total breakdown when a vehicle becomes totally immobile and cannot be driven even a short distance to reach a car garage and necessitating a tow. Total breakdown occurs due to several reasons including engine failure, dead starter or battery dead, although a dead battery may be able to be temporarily resolved with jump start.
