Mitsubishi Fuso To Extend Business Hours and Days
At Japan Service Facilities

March 3, 2010

•  Initiative Rolled Out as “Good Support Declaration!”
•  Longer Weekday Service Hours, Saturday and Sunday Availability, Other Enhancements Starting Up or Coming Soon

Kawasaki - Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (MFTBC), one of Asia’s leading commercial vehicle manufacturers, has decided to extend business hours and days at its service facilities of regional dealers throughout Japan.

In a spirit of making customers happier through services, MFTBC has undertaken this extension of service business hours and days under the banner “Good Support Declaration!”
The new service setup -- which enhances the convenience of regular vehicle checks, inspections, and maintenance -- is intended so customers can operate with maximum comfort and ease of mind. Under the new setup, customers can also continue to enjoy the ‘Safety’ and ‘Security’ that comes from MFTBC’s service expertise, uniform service setup nationwide and integrated production and sales arrangement.


  1. About the extension of business hours

The business (drop-off) hours have been extended two hours from the previous 9:00-17:30 to 8:30-19:00 at 192 service facilities throughout the country.

2. Also open on Saturdays

Service facilities will begin phasing in Saturday hours starting from March 1.

3. New business operation on Sundays

From April 1, operation will start on Sundays at major service facilities (45 bases).

4. Enhancements to “EX Plan,” a new-vehicle guarantee extension service

In June 2007, MFTBC introduced the “EX Plan” which extends the new-vehicle guarantee period one year for medium-duty trucks/heavy-duty trucks that have taken regular inspection at MFTBC-affiliated dealers and regional dealerships.  The new-vehicle guarantee used to be valid for one year after the registration, but this EX Plan offers another year before the next regular inspection.  The guarantee service period is now extended at every drop-off for regular check every one year; general/regular parts can be guaranteed for three years at longest (before the third regular inspection) for free; and special parts for five years at longest (before the 5th regular inspection) for free.

5. Preventive Maintenance with MFTBC’s own check items

By implementing regular inspections and maintenance with MFTBC’s own check list, the company makes utmost efforts to support and secure our customers safe vehicle operation from the preventive maintenance perspective.
