The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administrator states that "every motor carrier and intermodal equipment provider must systematically inspect, repair, and maintain all motor vehicles and intermodal equipment subject to its control.  Parts and accessories shall be in safe and proper operating condition at all times. These include parts and accessories which may affect safety of operation, including but not limited to, frame and frame assemblies, suspension systems, axles and attaching parts, wheels and rims, and steering systems."

       LUBRICANTS

 

Lubrication is a vital part of a any machine with moving parts.   It is said that lubrication

means to make something smooth or slippery.  Therefore without the proper oil or grease, components are left unprotected and will face premature, catastrophic failure leading to costly and avoidable repairs.  Let the experts at Catz Truck & Diesel Services keep your vehicles on the road with regular on site service maintenance.

      COOLING SYSTEM
 

It's a well known fact that most diesel engine failures stem from poor cooling system condtion.  While most vehicle owners focus on regular oil change, unfortunately the cooling system often times gets over looked. Think of the living conditions inside a house located in south Texas during  a hot summer day with poor ventilation and no air conditioning!   Let the experts at Catz Truck & Diesel Services keep your vehicles on the road with regular on site service maintenance.

       ROUTINE INSPECTIONS
 

How important are inspections? Very important.  So much, that the Department of Transportation requires commercial vehicle operators to perform a daily inspection before its use.  In addition each year a certified DOT Inspector performs an inspectiion verifiying its safe operating condition.  This is enough right? Not necessarily.  Routine oil sample analysis, indepth inspection of  suspension,

driveline, charching, and starting system  can reveal potential future failures.  We take pride in performing a bumper to bumper comprehensive inspection on each preventative maintenance service.  Just a part of our service to our customers.
