In this incident, on March 23, 2023, we received a dispatch for a Kenworth tractor-trailer leaking fluid. The driver was unsure but communicated that fuel or coolant was leaking from beneath the truck. Either way, it needed complete fleet services from Motorplex and Pro-Tow.
Truck and Trailer Calls for Help
This tractor was pulling a 40-foot trailer with a piggyback forklift on it. The driver noticed fluid dripping from bolts and lines beneath the truck, and a pool of liquid was evident on the pavement.
When Team Pro-Tow arrived, we separated the tractor from the trailer. Then, we loaded the tractor backwards, lifted it from the axle with large forks, and chained it. We dumped airbags and secured them to under lift, secured the steering wheel and set the light bar. Then we towed the truck and trailer to our yard and heavy-duty repair shop.
Two-In-One Fleet Services
For this job, the customer needed complete services from multiple departments. It required heavy-duty towing and repair services in our heavy-duty repair shop in Spokane. We can provide fleet repairs on-site. Customers usually choose this service if they are on a tight schedule and must get their load back on the road as soon as possible. Mobile repair services are generally more expensive than in the shop. However, reducing downtime and making important deliveries is good for business, so the cost can still be worth it.
In this case, bringing the truck into Motorplex’s heavy duty repair shop for repairs made sense. Our experienced technicians were able to determine the source of the leak and make the necessary repairs to get that tractor back on the road.
