One Shop. All Makes. All Systems. How One Repair Partner Can Simplify Fleet Maintenance

Fleet managers know the challenge of keeping trucks on the road. Between balancing service schedules, managing vendor relationships, and chasing down repair updates, it’s easy to lose time—and control—when repairs are spread across multiple shops.

For mixed fleets especially, complexity multiplies. Different makes, different systems, different service providers. But there’s a better way to handle it: consolidation with the right partner.

At Matthews Motors, we’ve built our operation around the needs of fleet managers who want to streamline service without compromising quality or OEM compliance.


Why Centralized Fleet Service Matters

Mixed fleets are the norm today—box trucks, reefers, vocational rigs, and OTR tractors often sit side by side in the same yard. But when each vehicle brand requires a different shop or dealership, efficiency goes out the window.

Centralizing service brings real operational value:

  • You reduce downtime by avoiding scheduling bottlenecks
  • You maintain clearer service histories and warranty tracking
  • You simplify communication and vendor management
  • You get more predictable costs and faster approvals

A single trusted repair partner—equipped to handle all makes and systems—can reduce the day-to-day friction that slows your operation down.


What It Takes to Service Modern Fleets

Today’s trucks are more advanced than ever, with sophisticated emissions systems, electronic controls, and drivetrain tech that requires deep knowledge and the right tools.

That’s why our shop combines OEM-certified technicians with all-makes versatility. For fleets, that means:

  • Diagnostics and repair for Freightliner, Kenworth, Hino, Isuzu, International, and more
  • Factory-trained support for Cummins, Isuzu, and Hino powertrains
  • Real-time access to OEM service bulletins and repair procedures
  • Capabilities across diesel engines, DEF systems, transmission, suspension, electrical, HVAC, and beyond

When your vehicles roll in, they’re in the hands of people who’ve seen it before—and fixed it before.


From Walk-Ins to Fleet Partnerships

Whether you manage three trucks or thirty, your time is best spent optimizing your operation—not coordinating between service centers. That’s why we work with both walk-ins and fleets to build flexible service plans and provide consistent, high-quality support.

We’re ready to support:

  • Delivery fleets running mixed Hino and Freightliner units
  • Contractors managing Isuzu NPRs and vocational trailers
  • Independent haulers operating Cummins-powered tractors

With tailored maintenance schedules, OEM-grade diagnostics, and a focus on fast, accurate turnaround, we help keep your trucks earning—not waiting.
