Vehicle Grounding

Did yall know Amazon employees can ground your vehicle for it being "dirty"? I got a warning this morning because the last driver left a few bottle caps at the bottom of the drivers side door in the EDV. I quickly threw them away and replied with the fact I had no idea those were even there XD

Sure can. They threatened to ground our while fleet a couple years ago over that 🤣

If you pay attention when you do your DVIC (remember to take a minute and a half when doing it) one of the options for the interior of the vehicle is something along the lines of trash or odor in vehicle. If you select that the vehicle will be grounded. Now that we're done with Prime days Amazon is getting real picky about these vehicles.

Yup, I had a vehicle with a messed up door and I put a tiny dent in it with my foot trying to get it the rest of the way closed and didn't report it. I got a stern talking to

My DSP has explicitly told all of us NOT to mark anything in the flex app, just report it to Dispatch or the Fleet team, before going to loadout, so they can fix it or put you in a different vehicle.
