Maintenance & support for peace of mind

Our Aftersales goal is to keep your fleet running smoothly, ensuring you can deliver services safely and efficiently. Our scheduled maintenance programme reduces unexpected breakdowns by combining regular inspections and timely part replacements.

We provide ongoing support with comprehensive training, aftersales assistance, and our VB-SMT remote diagnostic tool.

AMBULANCE SCHEDULED SERVICING

Regular servicing and inspections keep your air suspension in peak condition, reducing the risk of unexpected repairs.

The VB-Airsuspension servicing schedule combines routine visual and functional inspections with the timely replacement of wear parts, ensuring your system remains in top condition and maintains your manufacturer warranty.

VB supports you with Service Packs at a significantly reduced cost compared to individual part replacements.

Available only for VB-FullAir systems supplied with a 5-year warranty, launched from September 2024.

Routine inspections

We recommend visual and functional inspections of the air suspension system at intervals of no more than 12 months or 36k miles (whichever first).

If any issues arise during the inspection, please contact our Aftersales team for assistance.
