Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA)’s dealer network is building or remodeling more than 40 locations across 30 U.S. states and Canadian provinces to add 700 more service bays in 2020, the company announced.
DTNA says the new service bays will increase potential network capacity by up to 3.5 million service hours per year and are being added where the customer need is greatest. Three hundred new service bays will be added in the Southeast and 90 additional bays will be added at a single Texas location alone. U.S. cities with significantly expanding service capacity include Nashville; Kansas City; South Bend, Ind.; and Columbus, Ohio.
Canadian dealers are adding service capacity as well. In Winnipeg, a new 30-plus bay facility is currently under construction while a Montreal location with 20 service bays is expected to open by the end of the year.
