Across North America, commercial fleet managers can now take advantage of a new dynamic tire reader technology. Goodyear’s Checkpoint system serves as a checkpoint (hence the name) at the entrance of parking lots such as storage yard to verify various tire variables such as pressure and tread depth.

For the moment, it is impossible for the average consumer to take advantage of such a system at home. Above all, let’s face it, it’s perhaps a bit of an excessive technology for a driveway that will only see two or three different vehicles for the most part. However, the innovations developed by Goodyear to optimize its dynamic reader technology is far from useless, even for a private individual. Integrated with other features, they promise to revolutionize your relationship with your tires… and maybe with your mechanic too!

More control over your Comfortdrive?

The U.S. company is already known for its wide range of high-quality tires for all types of vehicles and driving styles. Its Assurance line, for example, has nearly a dozen variations, all designed with a particular type of motorist in mind. If you own Comfortdrive, Weatherready, or even Eagle and Wrangler tires, you already know the exceptional performance of Goodyear products.

Now that reliability can be combined with a real-time verification system right from your phone. It may sound futuristic, but that’s where Goodyear is headed with its increasingly impressive connected tire innovations. In addition to the CheckPoint system, the company has developed a host of promising technologies in recent years, such as Optix and TPMS PLUS. They all have one thing in common: they combine the power of real-time communication with the expertise of a company that has been building tires for over a century!

 

Now imagine the garage of the future. At the entrance, no need to check your identity: the CheckPoint system has recognized you as soon as you entered the yard! In addition to providing your technician with basic information about your vehicle, he or she will know the condition of your tires even before the inspection. You know why you’re there, after all your phone was able to warn you as soon as a problem was detected. No more uncertainty or hidden costs, all thanks to Goodyear!
