Navistar Used Truck Reconditioning Center opens in Illinois

Navistar’s Used Truck Reconditioning Center in Melrose Park, Ill., recently held its grand opening and is now open for business. The new Reconditioning Center is the result of the relocation and closure of the Indianapolis Center. Navistar also plans to relocate its nearby International Used Truck Sales Center to its Melrose Park facility in 2017.

“One of the greatest advantages of a centralized Reconditioning Center is the ability to work hand-in-hand with the on-site Product Engineering and Prototype Team in order to fully understand product durability and use this knowledge to provide the highest level of service to our customers,” said Jeff Heichel, vice president of used truck operations for Navistar.

A centralized Reconditioning Center supports Used Truck activities by examining the Diamond Renewed reconditioning process to ensure a consistent product is available to all International Dealers and Navistar’s own 15 Used Truck Sales Centers, the company said. The Reconditioning Center in Melrose Park is fully scalable to meet demands and includes a wash bay, detailing and paint booth, welding room and a parts storage area.
