Mercedes supplier JIT delivery clock on I-20/59
Tier-1 and tier-2 plants in central Alabama run JIT runs to the Mercedes Vance assembly line on tight windows. When a supplier tractor goes down on I-20/59 between Tuscaloosa and Vance, the assembly clock is the call we are racing. Our service trucks pre-stock the air-system, electrical, and brake-line parts most likely to put a JIT tractor back on the road in under 60 minutes.
Exit 76 truck-stop cluster fuel-system failure
Driver completes a 10-hour break at Pilot 381, TA, or Love's 443 and finds a fuel-cutoff sensor fault or water-in-tank issue at start. Our roadside unit dispatches with a fuel-system primer, water-separator drain kit, and ECM scan tool. Most fueling-area fuel-system calls clear in under 60 minutes from notification.
