## Overview

The Walkaround Checks module is where you review the results of vehicle inspections completed by your drivers. Drivers use the FleetFusion mobile app to work through a checklist template assigned to their vehicle type, recording a pass or fail for each component and attaching photos where needed. Once submitted, the results appear here so you can monitor defect rates, review photo evidence, and take action on any issues.

From the sidebar, select **Walkaround Checks** (clipboard icon) to open the module. You will see two sub-pages:

* **Walkaround Checks** -- the main list of all checklist submissions, with filtering, defect counts, and photo thumbnails.
* **Overview** -- an aggregated analytics view showing defect rates and vehicle compliance across the fleet.

## Key Concepts

| Term               | Meaning                                                                                                                |

| Walkaround Check   | A vehicle inspection completed by a driver against a checklist template                                                |
| Checklist Template | The form definition that determines which components are inspected (configured in **Settings > Check List Templates**) |
| Defect             | A component that a driver has marked as failed during an inspection                                                    |

{% hint style="info" %}
Each vehicle type can have a default checklist template assigned. When a driver submits a walkaround check, FleetFusion uses the template linked to that vehicle's type. You can manage templates under **Settings > Check List Templates**.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
If a walkaround check raises defects, a work item is automatically created in the Work Queue so the issue can be tracked through to resolution.
{% endhint %}
