Five Ways the Michelin® Tire Care™ Program Can Prevent Downtime and Save You Money
Commercial fleets rely on maximum uptime to get the most out of their machinery and processes, as every second of downtime represents inefficiency. Mike Antich, Editor and Associate Publisher of truckinginfo.com, estimates that on average, downtime costs $100 an hour. That’s over $2400 a day!
So, how can fleet owners defeat downtime? How can they make sure that the little details don’t become big problems?
The answer is a comprehensive program that reduces road service calls, improves CSA scores, and optimizes safety and performance. The Michelin® Tire Care™ fleet monitoring program offers comprehensive tire evaluation, analysis, and network service that you can trust. This program provides accurate, actionable fleet guidance and smart, effective decision-making. With the new MICHELIN® TIRE CARE™ service program, you can get the most out of your assets and keep your fleet up and running.
Here are five ways the MICHELIN TIRE CARE performed by Bauer Built Tire takes the pressure off you for fleet tire maintenance and service.
Lower Fuel Costs
Under-inflated tires are one of the biggest causes of fuel inefficiency. Under-inflated tires have great rolling resistance, requiring more horsepower, and consequently more fuel. Our inspection will check for appropriate tire inflation and help you make the necessary adjustments.
Better Delivery Times
Our goal is to help you get the most out of your fleet. By keeping your vehicles well cared for, you can eliminate unexpected delays from equipment downtime.
CSA Compliance
The FMSCA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration) has very specific CSA (Compliance, Safety, Accountability) rules. Our program can help your performance in the following areas: hours of service compliance, vehicle maintenance, and possibly crash indicator.
Improved Tire Selection and Inventory Control
Our team of experts can help you find the right tires at the right price. Whether you are looking for new, retreaded, wide, narrow, or something else, we’ve got the experts to help you find and stock the right tires.
Reduced Road Service Calls
Reduce road service calls with our comprehensive inspections and performance reports. We can use our combination of inspectors, software, and maintenance records to help predict problems before they occur.
