Frequently asked questions
What usually fails a Sprinter on a DOT inspection?
Brakes, tires, steering play, and lights are the most common. We check these first and correct them so a small issue does not put your van out of service.
Can you fix problems found during the prep?
Yes. We flag every item and repair what is needed in the same visit when you approve it, so your Riverside van leaves ready to pass the official inspection.
