Vehicle Maintenance Tracking Software?

I’d just use excel. There might be some better apps and I’ve used everything from manager plus,Verizon and custom built ones to manage fleets but for 4 cars it’s hard for me to think you need anything super sophisticated.

I buy Toyotas so other than an oil change, nothing else is needed.

Onstar does it for you if you have that

I look at that little sticker they put on my windshield, then add 2k miles to what it says.

Fuelly. Tracks gas mileage and can be setup to track all other vehicle maintenance.

My green book, college rule.

I've used Excel for decades at home to quite successfully manage my personal vehicles and toys. I use a tab for each vehicle, and also keep info so I wont need to look up (lug nut torque, filter part number, oil change date, type and quarts, etc.).

Same for a few decades for the small fleet that I manage at work...also very successfully.

Powers That Be decided we needed this extensive SharePoint program, for fleet management so we built that, and scanned oodles worth of file folders of documents into SharePoint. In fact, sitting on my desk right now is a pile of documents from tire and oil changes, windshield replacements and alignment, etc. that need to be scanned in...just since Memorial Day.

They also installed AT&T cellular trackers to the OBD ports of all the cars, that send a ton of info. They also have a maintenance tracking system you can use.

We damaged, wrecked, or otherwise lost use of 50% of our fleet this year for one thing or another. The documentation overhead into SharePoint from all the actions is insane; whereas I used to just drop paperwork into a hanging file folder for each vehicle, I now have so much more clerical workload.

Word from the semi-wise: use an Excel spreadsheet and a file folder.

Garage wall and a sharpie. No download or login required.

According to Hyundai this wasn't what they wanted to hear if I wanted to submit one of our cars in for warranty work.

Oil change and tire rotation every 5,000 miles. Odometer tells me 5, 10, 15, 20 … requires no thought on my part. (It's a little frequent for tire rotation but it is convenient).

New tires every 50,000 miles. Buy with a 60,000 mile warranty.

On time relative items (transmission flush, battery) I keep the paper work in my glove compartment. I write on the invoice when the next change is due. Always buy the 5 year battery. 3 years comes around way to quick.

This is exactly what I do. Not a boomer, but was always told to go by the 5 rule. Every 5,000 miles take it to the shop. 3 years for battery
