Brake Inspection History

Summary/Use Case

Summary

The Brake Inspection History report displays a detailed log of historical brake inspection records by vehicle, including axle-level data and depth measurements. Fleet managers can use this report to monitor brake wear over time, track inspection compliance, and identify vehicles approaching critical maintenance thresholds.

Use Case

  • Monitor brake wear trends and predict future maintenance needs

  • Validate that inspections are being completed and recorded properly

  • Identify vehicles at or near critical brake depth thresholds to avoid safety risks

  • Ensure DOT compliance by documenting and archiving brake inspection history

  • Compare brake wear across multiple facilities or vehicle types

Report Output and Data Elements

Report Output

The Brake Inspection History report provides a chronological breakdown of brake inspections per vehicle, including the date, odometer reading, axle number, thresholds for warning and critical depth, and measured brake depth. It categorizes data based on units (millimeters, inches, or percentages) and color codes critical data (e.g., red for critical values). The report makes it easy to see brake health trends and any out-of-threshold findings across different measurement types.
