How do you know if your vehicle needs Tire & Break Repair?
Underinflated or Overinflated Tires
Every truck has its specified tire filling. Underinflation increases rolling resistance; this may lead to reduced fuel economy and reduced fuel economy. Underinflation also wears out the treads and strains the belts holding the tires together. On the other hand, overinflation reduces the contact patch, resulting in poor stability and limited tractions. Overinflated tires are more prone to punctures because the tires cannot absorb impact from road debris.
Low Tread Depth
Tire treads give the tires a better grip and channel water and debris away. To test your tire treads’ depth, you insert a coin on the treads’ center groove. At logistics repairs in Newcastle, you can have the tread depth checked and get advice on the best tires.
Squealing Breaks
You need to have your brake pads changed regularly to avoid the squealing sounds from the brakes. The squealing sounds are not only annoying to the truck’s driver but every other driver near the squealing vehicle.
Controlled truck Direction during Breaking
A truck should not lose direction when breaking. Otherwise, if it does, you need to visit a professional at logistics Repairs Newcastle and get the truck fixed. A collapsed brake line or stuck caliper are some of the causes of pulls when braking.
