Vehicle Maintenance and Repair

Every commercial vehicle, including each segment of a combination vehicle requires periodic inspection that must be performed at least once every 12 months. At a minimum, inspections must include all items enumerated in the Minimum Periodic Inspection Standards, Appendix G to Subchapter B of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations. Motor carriers may perform required annual inspection themselves. The original or a copy of the periodic inspection report must be retained by the motor carrier for 14 months from the report date.

From at least in or about 2012 up to and including in or about August 2016, ISSA, who owned and operated numerous auto-repair and maintenance companies in the New York area and elsewhere, paid bribes to Postal Service VMF managers in order to obtain work repairing and maintaining vehicles belonging to the Postal Service. ISSA provided cash, gifts, lavish meals, and trips to these VMF Managers in exchange for receiving work for his companies. As a result of some of these bribes, ISSA received millions of dollars in fees from the Postal Service.

Between 1968 and 2023: Car maintenance experienced an average inflation rate of 4.56% per year. This rate of change indicates significant inflation. In other words, car maintenance costing $500 in the year 1968 would cost $5,809.66 in 2023 for an equivalent purchase. Compared to the overall inflation rate of 4.00% during this same period, inflation for car maintenance was higher.

In the year 1968: Pricing changed by 5.39%, which is above the average yearly change for car maintenance during the 1968-2023 time period. Compared to inflation for all items in 1968 (4.27%), inflation for car maintenance was higher.

The Automotive Maintenance and Repair Association (AMRA) is a not-for-profit trade association formally organized in 1992 to represent the interests, common policies and purposes of companies engaged in providing automotive maintenance and repair services, their suppliers and related companies in the automotive industry when dealing with consumers. The main purpose of AMRA is to provide consumer communication programs like its Motorist Assurance Program (MAP), MAP Participating Facility Program and its MAP-Qualified Technician Program for the benefit of the consumer. AMRA also provides consumer brochures for consumer education, providing information on a variety of consumer-requested topics dealing with their automotive maintenance and repair service experiences.

Use a baster to suck out the dark brown brake fluid (brake and power steering fluids are incompatible, so use a different baster for each). Squirt it into a recycling bottle. Refill the reservoir with fresh brake fluid as shown. Then drive the vehicle for a week to mix the new fluid with the old. Repeat the procedure several times over the next few weeks until the fluid in the reservoir retains its light honey color.

Vehicle maintenance and repair technologies programs prepare students to apply technical knowledge and skills in the adjustment, maintenance, part replacement, and repair of vehicles and mobile equipment.

The Department of Administrative Services (DAS) Fleet Services is responsible for managing the maintenance, service and repair of all State fleet vehicles. The information below outlines required procedures for servicing State-owned vehicles managed by DAS Fleet Services. This includes all State agency vehicles except those owned by the Iowa Department of Transportation, the University of Northern Iowa, Iowa State University and the University of Iowa.

Maintenance needs and safety requirements for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are similar to those of conventional vehicles, while all-electric vehicles require less maintenance. Manufacturers are designing these vehicles and publishing guides with maintenance and safety in mind.

Because PHEVs and HEVs have internal combustion engines, maintenance requirements are similar to those of conventional vehicles. The electrical system (battery, motor, and associated electronics) typically requires minimal scheduled maintenance, and brake systems generally last longer than those on conventional vehicles because of regenerative braking.

The advanced batteries used in these vehicles have a limited number of charging cycles (the number of times the battery can be charged and discharged, also called "cycle life"). Check with the dealer about battery life and warranties and consider the manufacturer's battery recycling policy. Some automotive battery systems use liquid coolant to maintain safe operating temperatures. These systems may require regular checks. Ask your dealer or refer to your owner's manual for more information.

The batteries in electric-drive vehicles are generally designed to last for the expected lifetime of the vehicle. Like the engines in conventional vehicles, the advanced batteries in electric vehicles (EVs) are designed for extended life but will wear out eventually. While comprehensive data on EV battery failures is not available, several manufacturers offer 8-year/100,000-mile warranties for their EV batteries.

Commercially available electric-drive vehicles must meet the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and undergo the same rigorous safety testing as conventional vehicles sold in the United States. The exception is neighborhood electric vehicles, which are subject to less-stringent standards because they are typically limited to low-speed roadways as specified by state and local regulations.

All-electric vehicles, PHEVs, and HEVs have high-voltage electrical systems that typically range from 100 to 600 volts. Their battery packs are encased in sealed shells and meet testing standards that subject batteries to conditions such as overcharge, vibration, extreme temperatures, short circuit, humidity, fire, collision, and water immersion. Manufacturers design these vehicles with insulated high-voltage lines and safety features that deactivate the electrical system when they detect a collision or short circuit. All-electric vehicles tend to have a lower center of gravity than conventional vehicles, making them more stable and less likely to roll over.

Emergency response for electric-drive vehicles is not significantly different from that of conventional vehicles. Electric-drive vehicles are designed with cutoff switches to isolate the battery and disable the electric system, and all high-voltage power lines are clearly designated with orange coloring.

Manufacturers publish emergency response guides for their vehicles and offer training for emergency responders. The National Fire Protection Association has training and information resources available at evsafetytraining.org.
