D O T CODES: When was the last time you checked them?

RV tire DOT codes on the sidewall indicate the tire’s size, load capacity, and the manufacturing date. The last 4 digits are the most critical, as they show when the tire was made. Of those last 4 digits: the first 2 shows the week number of the year, while the last 2 show the year.

Did you know RV tires usually “age out” before they “wear out”? Even if the tread looks deep, rubber degrades over time, especially if it’s been sitting in the sun or snow (very common for RVs). Our techs recommend replacing tires every 5–7 years, regardless of how many miles are on them.

Sometimes the code is on the inner wall of the tire depending on how it was mounted. If you need help locating it or aren’t sure how to how to read it, bring it by and we’ll be glad to show you!

The De-Winterizing Checklist

The birds are chirping and the campgrounds are calling! But before you load up the cooler, is your rig actually road ready? De-winterizing is more than just turning on the tap, it’s about ensuring your home-on-wheels is safe, leak-free, and road-ready.

Don’t let a “first trip” disaster ruin your season. Here are the big 3 we’re checking:

•The Plumbing: Checking for those sneaky winter freeze cracks
•The Battery: Did it survive the storage chill?
•The Seals: Ensuring your roof stays dry during these spring showers

Stop small leaks before they become BIG problems!

Don’t let a damaged roof ruin your next adventure! Exposure to sun, rain, and temperature changes can cause your RV roof, seams, and seals to crack and leak.

You should aim to have the sides and roof of your RV inspected twice yearly or before/after storage or rainy seasons. This inspection should include checking for cracks, voids, peeling, and soft spots on:

•The roof
•All windows
•All slide outs
•Vents
•AC Units

Blue Lake Auto & RV repair offers a free inspection to help uncover hidden water damage, assess any concerning seams and seals, and prevent bigger issues from arising. Schedule an appointment with us by calling 503-491-9871 or visiting bluelakeautoandrv.com

📌Did you know there is a legal minimum for tire tread depth?

There is! It is illegal to drive on tires with a tire tread that measures 1.6mm (2/32) or lower!

🏁It's important to regularly check the tread depth of your tires to ensure that they are in good condition and providing adequate traction. As tire tread wears down, the tire's ability to grip the road and provide traction is reduced. This can lead to poor handling and braking, especially in wet or slippery conditions. It can also increase the risk of a tire blowout or failure, which can be dangerous at high speeds.

How to check your tire tread depth:
•Use a tire tread depth gauge - a tool specific for this purpose

•The "penny trick" (use for a rough estimate only)
Using a penny - Lincoln's head down inside the tread - if his head is covered by the tread, the tread is at a minimum safe level. If his head is visible - the tire tread depth is below the safe level

If you have any concerns about the depth of your tire tread, don't wait to reach out to us. We’re here to help ensure your tires are ready for winter!

This dodge promaster equipped with a 3.6l engine had a misfire code that wouldn’t go away. Diagnosed as a failed valve train component. We removed the valve cover and camshafts. Found a failed rocker arm on cylinder 3. Failed rocker arms are a very common issue on the 3.6 liter engines. Does your dodge/jeep have a tick or a misfire that you can’t track down? We can help!
