- Brakes and brake lights

DOT Inspection Results and Next Steps
There are three possible results from your DOT inspection:
- No Violations
- Violations, Non-Out of Service
- Violations, Out of Service
Ideally, your truck and trailer will pass the DOT inspection with no issues. If there is something wrong, it may be minor enough that your truck can stay in service as long as you deal with the problem quickly (within 15 days). If there’s a serious problem, however, your truck must be taken out of service until it’s fixed. If you receive a violation, whether the problem is major or minor, you must address the issue and send documentation to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration as quickly as possible.
A huge benefit of working with Action Diesel Truck & Equipment Service, LLC, for your inspection is that we can work on any problems right away. You’ll have minimal downtime between getting a violation, getting it fixed, and getting the documentation of the fix submitted.
