Night-Time Front-Left Truck Tyre Replacement on the A7 near the Wetterschacht West Parking Area

During the night, the driver contacted MT onroad to report tyre damage on the A7 near the Wetterschacht West parking area, close to Düderode in Lower Saxony, Germany. Because the vehicle was stopped on the motorway, the dispatcher first confirmed the exact stopping location, direction of travel and tyre details.

The truck driver sent all the required details via WhatsApp:

• Vehicle: tractor unit, over 7.5 tonnes;
• Affected axle: front axle;
• Side: left, driver’s side;
• Tyre size: 385/55 R22.5;
• Rim condition: undamaged;
• Location: A7 near the Wetterschacht West parking area, close to Düderode.

After reviewing the details, the MT onroad dispatch team prepared a quotation for a night-time mobile truck tyre service at the breakdown location. Before the service team was dispatched, the customer received an invoice covering the following services:

• Call-out to the breakdown location;
• Selection of a suitable replacement tyre;
• On-site fitting; 
• Disposal of the old tyre;
• Return journey of the service team.

The customer confirmed the order and paid the invoice via a payment link. Because the front-left tyre on the driver’s side was damaged and the vehicle was stopped on the motorway, work could begin only after the breakdown site had been secured with support from the Autobahnmeisterei (motorway maintenance service).

Result

Within 21 minutes of receiving the night-time service request, the MT onroad dispatch team collected the vehicle details, verified the location on the A7 near the Wetterschacht West parking area, confirmed the price before dispatch, processed payment via a payment link, coordinated the required site safety measures with the Autobahnmeisterei and arranged replacement of the 385/55 R22.5 front-left tyre. After the replacement, the tractor unit with its trailer continued its journey.
