Spokane Fleet Maintenance: A 90-Day Plan That Cuts Downtime

Spokane roads, winter de-icer, spring potholes, and hill climbs can beat up work vans and trucks. This 90-day fleet plan keeps your vehicles safe, reduces surprise repairs, and protects your schedule.

The 90-Day Plan at a Glance

• Day 0 – Baseline check (for every unit)
  VIN & mileage log, scan for codes, fluids (oil/coolant/brake/PS), tire tread & PSI, battery test, brake thickness, lights, wipers, leaks, filters.

• Weekly – Fast safety walkaround (5 minutes)
  Tires/PSI, lights, washer fluid, visible leaks, unusual noises or smells.

• Every 30 days or ~5,000 miles (whichever comes first for high-use vans)
  Tire rotation, quick alignment check, brake inspection, top off fluids, inspect belts/hoses, cabin & engine air filter glance.

• Every 60 days
  Battery load test, suspension/steering joints check, transmission fluid condition check, cooling system hoses/clamps, TPMS scan.

• Every 90 days – Full service window
  Oil & filter (if not already), measure pads/rotors, full alignment if pull/vibration/uneven wear, differential check (trucks), AC performance test, wiper replacement.

Spokane Add-Ons (Seasonal)

• Winter prep (Oct–Nov): battery test, washer fluid rated for freezing, tire depth ≥5/32, brake check, underbody wash to reduce de-icer buildup.

• Pothole season (late winter–spring): quick alignment + wheel balance, inspect bent rims and sidewall bubbles.

• Smoke/dust (summer): replace cabin filter early, check condenser for debris, verify AC performance.

Driver Daily Card (keep in each vehicle)

• Start: lights, horn, wipers, heater/defroster, mirrors.

• Walkaround: tires & PSI, no leaks under vehicle, doors/locks.

• Note issues: pull, vibration, brake noise, hard start, warning lights.

• Report same day (simple Google Form or sheet) so we can fix it fast.

Pull-From-Service Triggers (don’t risk a breakdown)

• Brake pads <3 mm, rotors badly grooved or pedal spongy

• Tires <4/32 in winter or visible cords/bubbles

• Battery fails load test or repeated slow cranks

• Recurrent overheating, coolant or oil leaks

• Steering play, strong pull, or severe vibration at speed

Fleet KPIs to Watch Monthly

• Downtime hours per vehicle

• Cost per mile (fuel + maintenance)

• Tire spend per 10k miles

• Check-engine repeat rate within 30 days

• MPG trend (catch tune-up or tire issues early)
