-Light duty fleets: Light duty vehicles are commonly used in types of commercial fleets, as well as for services that are used to transport people rather than goods.
-Passenger car fleets: The biggest industry that utilize passenger car fleets is the rental car industry. Other industries that use passenger car fleets include pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology companies, fruit delivery companies, and energy companies.
-Heavy machinery fleets: These fleets are often used for construction or to lift and transport heavy cargo. Some heavy machinery fleet vehicles include excavators, bulldozers, motor graders, and liftgate trucks.
What are the most common fleet services?
If you are a fleet manager, you know that it is important to bring your fleet in for regular maintenance and repairs. It is crucial to service a few of your fleet vehicles at a time so that your business can be up and running while some vehicles are in our shop. Here are some of the most common fleet services our Exceptional technicians come across:
-Engine repair: Your fleet vehicle's engine may not be working properly because of overheating, a lack of compression, and/or a bad fuel mix.
-Brake repair: Particularly for heavier fleet vehicles, more strain is put on the brakes causing them to experience fluid leaks or, in extreme cases, brake failure.
-Wheel alignment: If you hear a squealing or growling noise coming from your vehicle's wheels and/or if your steering wheel feels loose while driving, it is probably time for a wheel alignment.
