Assignment Instructions Conduct a FMEA for any part of a car

1.Conduct a FMEA of an automotive product that you choose. Use the provided PFMEA template

2.Identify up to 5 process steps/functions for the process of the part/component you selected

3.Identify and describe the potential failure modes, effects and causes for these steps/functions based on your experience/research.

4.Determine the Severity, Occurrence and Detection ratings based on your experience/research of the process and the ranking method/scale that you determine.

5.Calculate the RPN accordingly, prioritize and record the recommended action in the PFMEA template accordingly
