To develop real-time reporting for fleet managers detailing safety recalls, GE Capital Fleet Services and Carfax have announced an agreement for GE to have access to Carfax vehicle data from more than 30 OEMs. GE will use the data to identify vehicles in its customer fleets with recalls that have not been performed.
The Carfax data will be presented in a customized web report that provides open recalls across each specific fleet. Currently, recall notices are distributed by manufacturers to vehicle operators, putting the initiative to bring vehicles in for servicing on individual drivers rather fleet managers, a process GE says can result in non-uniform handling of recalls across a fleet.
