If your business relies on vehicles, downtime is lost revenue. South Florida's heat, humidity, and heavy traffic create unique challenges. Here's how to keep your fleet running.
1. Shorten Your Maintenance Intervals
South Florida driving is classified as "severe" by most manufacturers. For oil changes, this means every 5,000 miles instead of 7,500-10,000.
2. Prioritize Cooling System Maintenance
Fleet vehicles sitting in traffic with AC blasting strain the cooling system enormously. Coolant flush every 24 months. Replace the thermostat proactively at 80,000-100,000 miles.
3. Battery Replacement Schedule
Plan on replacing batteries every 2.5-3 years in Florida, regardless of condition. A $150 proactive replacement beats a stranded driver and tow truck.
4. Brake Inspections Every 15,000 Miles
Florida stop-and-go traffic eats through brakes. Don't wait for noise — inspect proactively.
5. AC System Annual Service
A fleet driver with no AC in South Florida will not be productive. Period. A $100-200 recharge prevents a $1,000+ compressor failure.
