Urban abuse patterns hammer brakes, electrical, cooling, and tires. We design PM plans to your mix of short hauls and port runs. Expect fluid checks, brake measurements, steering play checks, battery load tests, aftertreatment health reviews, and tire wear tracking. Reports are digital and tie to your asset IDs so budgeting is simple.
We brief drivers on warning signs like frequent regens, spongy brakes, flickering lights, hot smells, belt noise, steering pull, vibration. Early calls reduce roadside risk. It keeps freight honest.
