Dubai motorists can receive complimentary vehicle inspections this summer as part of the "Summer Without Accidents 2026" campaign, launched by Dubai Police and ENOC AutoPro. The initiative, under the patronage of the Ministry of Interior and the Federal Traffic Council, aims to enhance road safety and reduce traffic fatalities. From August 10 to 23, 2026, free inspections, covering ten essential safety checks, will be available at AutoPro centres located at ENOC petrol stations.
These inspections are particularly important during the UAE's extreme summer heat. Minor issues, such as worn tyres, low battery power, or malfunctioning brakes, can worsen under high temperatures, potentially leading to breakdowns or safety hazards. Key areas of concern include tyre condition, battery health, engine cooling systems, brake functionality, air-conditioning performance, and the overall condition of fluids, belts, and hoses.
Neglecting these aspects during summer can lead to dangerous consequences, such as tyre blowouts, engine overheating, battery failure, and compromised braking or air-conditioning systems.
