What Does the DOT Inspection Include?

Our DOT inspection checks all areas of your truck that are required by the DOT. Each aspect of your vehicle must be in good working condition and properly installed.

• Safety equipment - This part of the inspection includes seatbelts, airbags and any other safety features, such as lights, windshield wipers and signals.
• Tires and brakes - If your brake pads are worn down or your air brakes are malfunctioning, you'll likely fail a DOT inspection. Your tires should also have a good amount of tread on them to ensure they work properly as well.
• Engine, transmission and drivetrain - These are all vital components of your heavy-duty rig. If any of them are not working properly, then you won't be able to drive, haul or tow!
