University-owned
vehicles are typically removed from service once they have reached
a predetermined mileage. Rental sedans will be removed from
service once they have reached 70,000 miles on the odometer.
Vans and buses will be removed from service after 80,000 miles.
Vehicles
are removed from service and surveyed to ensure that campus community
members are provided with safe and reliable transportation.
These passenger vehicles are typically sold at auction and any
revenue returned to the campus. Vans, buses, or other specialty
vehicles may be re-assigned to the maintenance fleet for local
use only. Property Management is responsible for the coordination
of this program. You can contact Karen Abbey in Property
Management via phone at (909) 537 - 5147 or e-mail: kabbey@csusb.edu.
Vehicles
can not be re-assigned to campus departments outside of the Facilities
Services. The reason they have been removed from the rental
fleet is that they have become unreliable and are in need of replacement.
It is not practical for any department to expect that they could
maintain these vehicles in safe working order for less than it
would cost to rent newer vehicles through our campus contract.
Thank you for your understanding.
