A failed DOT inspection can pull a truck out of service immediately, which is costly for owner-operators and fleets alike. Most failures come down to a handful of common, preventable issues.
Common DOT Inspection Failure Points
Brakes out of adjustment, worn tires or low tread depth, lighting and reflector violations, air brake system leaks, and steering or suspension component wear are among the most common reasons trucks are placed out of service during a DOT inspection.
