Abstract

See full text

A computer-implemented method for carrying out a plausibility check for recognizing a loss in load-bearing capacity in at least one suspension strut of a suspension system of a motor vehicle chassis during the operation of the chassis. Target-actual comparisons of measured suspension paths with evaluation parameters having predetermined critical threshold values calculated from the suspension paths are performed. In the event that the predetermined critical threshold values are exceeded or not attained, a recognition signal is set for a possible loss in load-bearing capacity.
