Vehicle Maintenance Program
It is vitally important that you implement a comprehensive vehicle maintenance program.
Your fleet maintenance program should include:
- pre-trip vehicle inspections for key potential problem areas,
- immediate withdrawal from service for any vehicle with mechanical problems, and
- periodic withdrawal from service for comprehensive inspection and scheduled maintenance.
Federal motor carrier regulations under 49 CFR 396 contain a list of commercial motor vehicle systems and parts that must be inspected.
