Frequently asked questions

What are the most common causes of commercial vehicle breakdowns?

The most frequent causes include neglected brake systems, tire failures, engine issues, and electrical faults. Regular inspections and timely repairs help you catch these problems early, preventing expensive breakdowns and keeping vehicles roadworthy.

Why is data from commercial vehicle maintenance inspections valuable for fleet managers?

Maintenance data allows fleet managers to spot recurring issues, plan preventive maintenance, and make informed decisions about vehicle replacements. This data-driven approach reduces costs, improves safety, and extends the lifespan of fleet assets.

What steps should a company take if a commercial vehicle fails a maintenance inspection?

Immediately remove the vehicle from service, document the issues, schedule repairs, and only return the vehicle to operation after a successful re-inspection. This process helps you ensure compliance and protects driver and public safety.

What are frequently overlooked areas in commercial vehicle maintenance?

Commonly overlooked areas include electrical systems, undercarriage corrosion, and auxiliary equipment like liftgates or refrigeration units. Regularly reviewing these areas prevents unexpected failures and ensures vehicles are still fully operational.
