Cut waiting times with maintenance packages from Leasys UK

WITH lead times for servicing, maintenance and repair (SMR) having increased by 57% since the pandemic (according to new data from Epyx), and with fleets being left without vehicles for longer, there’s never been a better time to make one easy resolution this New Year and add a maintenance package at the outset of your contract hire agreement, according to leasing broker funder Leasys UK.

According to Epyx, the average time between creation of  a company car or van booking to when the vehicle went in for work was 8.11 days in January 2020.

By Q3 2023, that had increased to 12.76 days, leaving fleets facing increased vehicle off-road (VOR) times.

To overcome this time lag, Leasys UK says that the close partnership it enjoys with its fellow Stellantis brands means it is in pole position to direct drivers to workshops with the capacity, tools and skills required for individual maintenance and repair work.
