Logan Township, NJ — Mitsubishi Fuso Truck of America, Inc. (MFTA) has announced the creation of its new, comprehensive FusoFirst product support program, aimed at providing full-service customer support for owners and operators of Mitsubishi Fuso medium-duty trucks.

The program encompasses many aspects, including 24/7 Roadside Assistance, dedicated website and mobile app, ongoing operator training, availability to nationwide FUSO Service and Parts Dealerships, and ongoing training of dealership technicians.

Most beneficial for the FUSO driver is the assurance of the Roadside Assistance program. It provides 24/7 towing, tire service, jump-starting, lockout service and fuel/DEF fluid replenishment—all available free of charge within the United States and Canada, for any FUSO Canter FE or FG Series work truck still within its three-year/unlimited-mileage, bumper-to-bumper warranty period.

In addition to roadside assistance, the FusoFirst program includes a mobile-friendly troubleshooting web app drivers can access via their smartphone or tablet anywhere they have Internet access. Content includes a dealer locator, a link to the Roadside Assistance number, a vehicle support wizard that will walk the driver step-by-step through a number of symptom-specific troubleshooting scenarios, as well as driver assistance videos and downloadable vehicle technical information.

According to Jecka Glasman, MFTA's president and CEO, "We recognize that driver education and continually improving customer service are keys to a strong future. Our new FusoFirst program is designed to signnal our commitment to our customers in a tangible way."

Method of distribution

Each current FUSO truck owner will receive a special FusoFirst kickoff kit that provides detailed information about the program. We are mailing these kits to current owners with trucks still under warranty. New truck owners will receive the special welcome kit at the time of delivery.
