# Detroit fleet maintenance, on site and overnight.

Slick runs metro Detroit from the DET HUB in Pontiac. Our W-2 technicians work on your lot after the last route clears, so every unit is ready when dispatch calls in the morning.

## Why Detroit fleet operators choose Slick

This region knows vehicles. Fleets here expect the job done right the first time and can usually tell when it wasn't. That standard is hard to hold when your maintenance plan is a list of shop numbers and whoever picks up first.

Winter makes it harder. Salt and brine coat Michigan roads for months, and the corrosion works on brake lines, fittings, and undercarriages long before a driver notices anything on a walkaround. Stack heavy delivery mileage on I-75, I-94, and I-96 on top of that, and small wear turns into a tow.

We replace the phone tree with a cadence. Techs arrive at your site in the evening, handle preventive work and repairs overnight, and photograph what they touched. Nothing gets dropped off, nothing sits in a queue, nothing misses a morning dispatch. That is what Detroit fleet maintenance looks like once it stops being reactive.

## Our service area from the DET HUB

Our base for this market is Pontiac, northwest of the city, not downtown Detroit — the DET HUB sits where the vans can get out to a yard early instead of fighting their way through the core first. From there we cover Detroit, Troy, Ann Arbor, Flint, and Lansing, and the territory between them.

Light-duty fleets are covered out to 75 miles from the hub; heavy-duty runs to 150 miles. What matters is where your vehicles park overnight, not where we park ours — if your site falls inside that footprint, the van comes to you. Most of the territory gets same-day and next-day service.

## What we handle for Detroit fleets

Everything you would otherwise haul to a shop, done where your vehicles already sit:

### Three ways to engage Slick

Every HUB delivers all three — including Slick HD PMI for Class 7–8 tractors.

- **[Slick PMI+](https://www.helloslick.com/services/pmi-plus)** — You tell us what you need. We roll the van, do the work on site, and document every job in TruView.
- **[Slick HD PMI](https://www.helloslick.com/services/hd-pmi)** — Nested inspection tiers for Class 7–8 tractors — Dry, PMI-A, and PMI-B. Delivered from every Slick HUB.

### What we deliver

## Proof of every visit in TruView

Vendors are easy to believe and hard to verify. TruView removes the guessing from both sides:

- Photos and video captured on each unit while the work is happening

- Anything outside the bundle arrives as an estimate you approve with a tap
- A running maintenance history per vehicle — useful at audit time and at resale

## Detroit fleet maintenance questions

### Which cities does the DET HUB cover?

Detroit, Troy, Ann Arbor, Flint, and Lansing, plus everything in between. Coverage extends 75 miles from the hub for light-duty fleets and 150 miles for heavy-duty.

### Why is the hub in Pontiac instead of Detroit?

Pontiac is where the DET HUB is based, but it isn't where the work happens — our techs drive out to you. Staging northwest of the city keeps vans clear of the downtown core on the way out to a job.

### Do we drop vehicles off at your Pontiac hub?

No. Slick comes to your site and works nights and weekends. One van and one tech can service ten vehicles in a single visit, so your fleet is on its routes the next morning.

### How do you deal with Michigan road salt?

With inspection frequency. Salt and brine attack brake lines, fittings, and undercarriage components quietly, so we look for that corrosion on a set cadence rather than waiting for a driver to report a symptom.

### Can you service fleets out toward Ann Arbor or Lansing?

Yes — both sit inside the DET HUB footprint, along with Troy and Flint. If you aren't sure whether your site is in range, ask us on a discovery call and we'll check the distance.

### What vehicle classes do you cover?

Classes 1–6, from cargo vans through box trucks. Class 7–8 tractors run through Slick HD PMI. Basic electrical work is included; complex wiring and ECU repair is not.

### What does it cost to run this in Detroit?

It depends on fleet size and service mix, and it comes back as one predictable monthly number instead of per-incident invoices. See how our pricing works, or run your numbers in the spend calculator.
