How Often Should You Service Your Tractor and Trailer?
While it varies per truck, age of the vehicle, and operating environment, your tractor and trailer should receive maintenance services depending on their mileage.
● Basic maintenance service: every 15,000 miles. This service includes checking basic truck necessities like lights and brake functionality.
● Thorough inspections: every 30,000 miles. In this inspection, your oil will be changed, also your air, oil, and fuel filters.
● Full inspection and maintenance: at least 1 per year. Here, your truck’s engine performance will be analyzed. If a problem is found, there’s a chance it will get replaced.
