This idea came up because of issues my family members, who are also truck drivers, have run into. My dad and uncle have told me countless stories about having to return to the dealership multiple times because of misdiagnosed fault codes or incorrect processes.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve been able to help them by calling the dealerships, asking the hard questions, and practically diagnosing the truck over the phone \u2014but it made me realize this is probably a common issue for a lot of drivers. <\/p>\n<p>So, here\u2019s what I\u2019m thinking:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022A service that ensures you\u2019re getting proper diagnostics and repairs the first time to avoid downtime and comebacks.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Simple, easy-to-understand explanations about the issue and root cause\u2014stuff that many service advisors either won\u2019t or can\u2019t explain.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Helping you create and stick to customized maintenance schedules for your truck, with reminders to keep you ahead of breakdowns.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s basically like having your own third-party fleet manager to help you navigate repairs, stay on top of maintenance, and save time and money.<\/p>\n<p>Would something like this be useful? Have you had similar issues? Let me know what you think or if there\u2019s something else you\u2019d want from a service like this. <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d really appreciate any feedback!\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n\t!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n\t\tn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\n\t\tn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n\t\tt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\n\t\tdocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n\tfbq('dataProcessingOptions', []);\n\tfbq('init', '1812746315680142'); \/\/ Insert your pixel ID here.\n\t\t\t\tfbq('track', 'PageView');\n\t\t<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruckersreport.com\/truckingindustryforum\/threads\/would-you-use-a-third-party-maintenance-company.2519227\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey everyone,I\u2019ve been toying with the idea of starting a service for owner-operators and truck drivers, and I wanted to get your thoughts.
