What the source reports

CVSA’s 2026 Roadcheck report lists brake systems, tires, defective brakes, cargo securement and lights as the five leading vehicle out-of-service violation categories. These are findings from the inspection event, not a forecast for every fleet.

For owner-operators

Bring recurring tire, lighting and braking concerns to the shop before the next dispatch. Include trailer symptoms when describing a problem.

For fleets

Review repeat defects across tractors and trailers. Use work orders to confirm that reported problems have been corrected before equipment returns to service.

Our service perspective

FleetMaster takeaway: a tractor-only service review can miss trailer defects. Connect driver reports with the maintenance record for the complete combination.
