Subpart E—Scheduled Maintenance of Motor Vehicles

§ 102-34.285   What kind of maintenance programs must we have?

You must have a scheduled maintenance program for each motor vehicle you own or lease. This requirement applies to motor vehicles operated in any State, Commonwealth, territory or possession of the United States, and the District of Columbia. The GSA Fleet will develop maintenance programs for GSA Fleet vehicles. The scheduled maintenance program must:

(a) Meet Federal, State, and local emission standards;

(b) Meet manufacturer warranty requirements;

(c) Ensure the safe and economical operating condition of the motor vehicle throughout its life; and

(d) Ensure that inspections and servicing occur as recommended by the manufacturer or more often if local operating conditions require.

§ 102-34.290   Must our motor vehicles pass State inspections?

Yes your motor vehicles must pass State inspections, where mandated.

(a) Each motor vehicle owned or leased by the Government must pass Federally-mandated emission inspections in the jurisdictions in which they operate when required by State motor vehicle administrations or State environmental departments. You must reimburse State activities for the cost of these inspections if the fee is not waived. GSA will pay the cost of these inspections for motor vehicles leased from the GSA Fleet.

(b) Motor vehicles owned or leased by the Government that are exempted from the display of U.S. Government license plates and motor vehicle identification must comply with emission and mechanical inspection programs of the State, Commonwealth, territory or possession of the United States or the District of Columbia in which they are regularly operated. Your agency must pay for these inspections, unless the fee is waived. Payment for these inspections for motor vehicles leased from the GSA Fleet are the responsibility of the using agency.
