Goodyear Commercial Tire & Service Center has opened sales and service departments at retread plants in three high-traffic areas in an effort to better service fleets.
The expanded retread plants are located in Bremen, Ga., Vernon, Calif., and Walnut, Calif., and offer new Goodyear, Dunlop and Kelly brand truck tires. The offerings include Goodyear’s Fuel Max LHD G505D and Fuel Max LHS long haul tires designed for fuel efficiency.
The three retread plants will also gain service centers providing Goodyear Fleet HQ 24/7 Emergency Roadside Service. Goodyear’s retread plants will continue to offer the company’s full line of retread products, including those that contain spliceless UniCircle Technology which improves tread wear and traction.
“These newly opened sales and service departments make it even easier for fleets to access premium Goodyear truck tires and services to help lower their operating costs,” said Paul Wanstreet, president of Goodyear Commercial Tire & Service Centers.
Customers can contact the sales and service departments around the clock by calling (330) 345-8229.
