When you align the front end of trucks built between 2011 and the present, are you sure you are sending them back on the road with the brakes functioning properly? When you replace or rebush front springs, are you having an effect on the ABS brakes? Are you and your technicians knowledgeable about the sensors, sensor location, appearance and how to assure they are functioning properly? If not, how to diagnose? When you install or sell brake shoes for a 2011 and newer truck are you using the proper brakes shoes? Are you making sure when working on brakes they meet DOT requirements?
If you aren’t sure of the answers, you better check your liability insurance policy.
