These 2 lines are listed as items to check for in a vehicle test. What would 突っ張り mean in this case?

protrusion
Explanation:
I'm not too confident on this, but to me it sounds like it's referring to a wire or hose that's sticking out where it doesn't belong. If that's the case, then I would go for:

Side brake wire protrusion
Brake hose breakage, protrusion

Something like this...
