Vehicle Maintenance Log Printable
Use this vehicle maintenance log to keep track of any work you’ve had done on your car. You’ll always know when it’s time to take your car to the shop, and you’ll have an easy reference sheet for the next owner when you go to sell!
As nice is it would be for our vehicles to keep running smoothly on their own, they definitely require consistent maintenance to stay in tip top shape!
With everything else going on in our lives, it can be hard to keep track of when to service our cars. So we created a helpful printable to keep all of the details straight!
Vehicle Maintenance Logs
Along with offering our vehicle maintenance logs in two different color schemes, we are also providing two versions of this printable!
One version comes pre-filled with standard maintenance recommendations for every three, six, and twelve months. The other version is blank, allowing you to fill in the maintenances tasks as you see fit.
You can download both versions in both color schemes by clicking on the button below!
How to Use the Maintenance Log for Vehicle
This sheet is helpful for tracking each time your car is serviced. Whether you’re taking it in for its annual inspection or something has broken and needs to be repaired, you can use this sheet to note all of it.
If you choose the pre-filled version of the printable vehicle maintenance log, simply check off the month of the year in which you have had each type of service performed.
If you choose the blank version of the vehicle maintenance log template, you are free to add in whichever fixes, repairs, and maintenance items you want!
Keeping an accurate log of the servicing of your vehicle will be immensely helpful when you go to sell your car. The new owner will greatly appreciate having a detailed report of all of the maintenance that has been completed on the vehicle, and you may even be able to sell for a higher price.
Printable Vehicle Maintenance Log Recommendations

Check Every 3 Months or 3,000 Miles

- Clean interior and exterior
Monitor Every 6 Months or 5,000 Miles

Depending the type of vehicle you own and how often you use it, you may need to perform these tasks more or less often. Always pay attention to any warning lights on the dashboard. And schedule regular maintenance appointments to keep your car in the safest possible condition.
If you need help remembering to check various parts of your vehicle, consider setting a recurring reminder on your phone that will remind you to keep up with the regular maintenance of your car.
Where to Keep the Vehicle Maintenance Log Template
If you keep a home binder and consistently revisit it to take notes or input information, that would be a great place to store your vehicle maintenance log to keep it easily accessible.
Another options would be to keep the vehicle maintenance log in the glove compartment of your car with the owner’s manual so you can easily take it out and make notes any time you have your vehicle serviced.
There’s more where that came from!
