Sample maintenance log form. Maintenance and Repairs. Routine vehicle maintenance should be done according to the recommendations of the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). If deviations from OEM recommendations occur, they should be justifiable by fleet management. (For instance, if the OEM recommends frequent vehicle washing and waxing for aesthetic reasons, this can be disregarded without compromising safety.) Figure 11.14.
