2 Breakdown maintenance
Break down maintenance is a attention which is to be provided when the motor vehicle becomes immobilized due
to fault created during running. These fault are started difficulties, puncture, electrical fault, carburetor and fuel
supply fault, overheating, fan belting, breakage and accident etc.
3 Periodic maintenance
Periodic maintenance or operatives maintenance is attentions provided attention provide to motor vehicles after
in operation for a specified time or covered distance.
Various types of maintenance in automobiles, highlighting their significance and benefits:
1 Preventive Maintenance
Preventive maintenance involves scheduled inspections, adjustments, and replacements to prevent potential
issues before they escalate. By adhering to manufacturer recommendations and conducting routine check-ups,
vehicle owners can identify and address problems proactively, minimizing the risk of major failures.
2 Predictive Maintenance
Predictive maintenance relies on advanced technologies and data analysis to predict when maintenance is
required. It utilizes sensors, diagnostics, and machine learning algorithms to monitor vehicle conditions, identify
patterns, and forecast potential failures. By predicting maintenance needs, vehicle owners can optimize repair
schedules and minimize downtime.
3 Corrective Maintenance
Corrective maintenance refers to repairs performed after a failure has occurred. This type of maintenance aims
to restore the vehicle to its normal operational state. While corrective maintenance can be unplanned and costly,
it is essential for addressing unexpected breakdowns and malfunctions.
4 Condition-Based Maintenance
Condition-based maintenance involves monitoring the condition of specific vehicle components to determine
when maintenance is required. It relies on real-time data collection and analysis, allowing for targeted repairs
based on the actual condition of the vehicle. Condition-based maintenance optimizes maintenance efforts by
focusing on components that show signs of degradation or wear.
5 Scheduled Maintenance
Scheduled maintenance follows a predetermined maintenance schedule provided by the manufacturer. It includes
routine tasks such as oil changes, filter replacements, and inspections. By adhering to scheduled maintenance,
vehicle owners can ensure the optimal performance and longevity of their vehicles.
6 Routine Maintenance
Routine maintenance encompasses regular tasks that need to be performed at specific intervals. This includes
checking fluid levels, tire pressure, and battery health. Routine maintenance helps in identifying minor issues
early on and prevents them from escalating into major problems.
7 Emergency Maintenance
Emergency maintenance refers to repairs done in urgent situations, typically when a breakdown or malfunction
occurs unexpectedly. It involves immediate actions to restore the vehicle’s operability and ensure safety.
Emergency maintenance focuses on addressing the immediate issue to get the vehicle back on the road quickly.
8 Periodic Maintenance
Periodic maintenance involves servicing a vehicle at regular intervals based on time or mileage. It includes
tasks such as replacing timing belts, spark plugs, and other components that have a limited lifespan. Periodic
maintenance helps in preventing sudden failures and extends the overall lifespan of the vehicle.
9 Breakdown Maintenance
Breakdown maintenance is performed when a vehicle experiences a sudden failure or breakdown. It involves
immediate repairs to restore the vehicle’s functionality. While breakdown maintenance is reactive in nature, it is
crucial for getting the vehicle back on track promptly.
