FAQ
Common questions
What are the signs of air brake failure in heavy-duty trucks?
Common signs of air brake failure include reduced braking power, unusual noises when braking and uneven braking pressure. You may also notice excessive slack in the brake system, or air leaks around the brake components. Have the brakes inspected immediately if you see any of these.
How often should air brakes be inspected?
Air brakes should be inspected during preventive maintenance, ideally every three to six months, depending on the vehicle’s usage and mileage. Regular inspections catch worn brake shoes and leaking air hoses early and keep the brakes inside federal safety standards.

What customers say
I personally think this is the best most knowledgeable shop great tire guys great mechanics. Very safety conscious! When you leave here all questions are answered and you’ll feel better about your ride. So if your coming through Charlotte stop in and check them out.
Arlen Ledbetter Professional, knowledgeable and reasonable on pricing. I’ve had alignments and balancing done here as well as an oil change. As an owner operator, I find Reed and the staff some of the best around in Charlotte when it comes to maintaining a semi.
Clever Black EagleSpan installed 6 new tires on my RV. They got the tires I wanted quickly, balanced and mounted the tires while I waited. They even installed new valve stems. Friendly people, great prices and speedy service earns them 5 stars. It’s also the only place in the Charlotte area that I know of that does alignments on big rigs.
