The program includes safety guidelines and step- by-step procedures for all aspects of passenger car and light truck tire service such as wheel installation with the proper torque and tire repair. It also includes a full day of instruction on Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS), so technicians have a thorough understanding of the requirements for the most popular domestic and import vehicles.
