How do I update a vehicle's odometer reading using the agent?

You can use the 'create_meter_entry' tool. Simply provide the Vehicle ID and the new meter value. The agent will record the entry in Fleetio immediately, which helps keeping maintenance schedules accurate.

Can I see upcoming service reminders for my entire fleet?

Yes! The 'list_service_reminders' tool retrieves all active maintenance reminders. You can ask your agent to sort these by date or priority to identify which vehicles need attention next.

What format should I use for reporting a new vehicle issue?

Use the 'create_issue' tool by providing the Vehicle ID and a summary of the problem. You can also add an optional detailed description to give technicians more context about the reported fault.
