Retread is a maintenance and repair bot. He fixes all kinds of stuff- pipes, potholes, squeaky door hinges, bracket shelving, vehicles and even other robots. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have the time to get proper maintenance and repair on himself- hence the tape, the dings, and the mis-matched arms.
