Catching problems with your vehicles early, or preventing them altogether, is the key to preventing costly repairs and even more costly downtime from your business. By having your vehicles serviced and ensuring they are properly maintained, you can prevent costly issues before they develop and keep your vehicles on the road where they belong. This is important regardless of whether you have a large or small fleet, where the loss of even one vehicle can have serious repercussions.
What goes into a successful maintenance schedule will depend on several factors, but it should at least include basic component replacements, oil changes, tyre rotations, alignments and a thorough inspection of your vehicle.
If any issues are found, the repairs should be completed as soon as possible, preferably before the vehicle is taken back on the road. Small problems can quickly escalate if you continue to use the vehicle after an issue is found.
