Now it's time for a full spring checkup
Snow, ice, rain and storms - trucks can be damaged during the cold season. Therefore, it is important to get the truck ready for spring. The most important thing is to remove salt and rust from the underbody and paint, in cavities or edges, European mobility service provider 24/7 Assistance said.
Tyres and brakes, headlights, seals, the windshield and the underbody must also be carefully inspected. At the same time, companies should check whether the curtainsiders are still watertight and all seals and welds are intact.
Furthermore, it is important to check the tyres for track deviations and damage such as cuts or pressure marks. Further recommendations for truck care in spring are summerised in a checklist, which 24/7 Assistance has published online. (ben)
