You Can't Ignore These Trailer Service Errors

If you requested it or if it's included in a particular service package, the tyre pressure in your trailer tyres should be checked. If you are unsure, the only way to be sure is to deflate one trailer tyre to 80 pounds, then examine that tyre once the trailer servicing is complete.

To replace brake pods on air brake trailers, make sure your mobile response has the appropriate tools. You don't want your brakes to lock up on you 10 hours after a brake pod replacement because the rubber gasket in the pod wasn't installed correctly.

Brake auto adjustments occasionally need to be adjusted, and trailer brakes require routine inspection. This is a serious error when a mechanic solely depends on auto brake adjust technology. Honest trailer repair shops focus on entering the area with the necessary instruments and performing thorough trailer brake adjustments.

Stickers for safety inspections must be carefully examined. A trailer with expired safety tags that is idle on the side of the road incurs downtime, a hefty fine, and a danger of demerit points on the driver's licence. Even if a shop makes the error of failing to check the sticker, the driver is still responsible for doing so once the trailer leaves the shop.

The owner operator of the truck carrying the trailer does not often own the trailers that are on the highway. As a result, trailers frequently receive significantly worse treatment than vehicles. A good trailer repair company can save the day for your fleet of trailers in this situation.
