KWIK-FIT Fleet has launched a new brake safety programme, providing fleets with a drive-in brake inspection and replacement service.

Fleets can get the free inspection without an appointment at any of Kwik-Fit Fleet's 750 UK centres.

Mike Wise, sales director at Kwik-Fit Fleet, said: 'Company car drivers are having to wait, often for a very long time, to have their brakes inspected and replaced at dealers. We employ brake specialists who can undertake free inspections and, if necessary, replace brake parts within minutes of the driver arriving at a Kwik-Fit centre.

'Drivers who believe their brakes need checking don't want to have to wait for up to two weeks for the work to be carried out.'

Kwik-Fit Fleet estimates that the average company car driver replaces brake pads once a year.
