A Quicker and Easier Service Option:

 

Uptime certification benefits busy truck drivers experiencing problems while on the road by providing a path to a quicker and easier service option. For instance, an error code suddenly appearing on your dashboard is one of the last things you want to see when you’re working on tight deadlines and have a full schedule of pickups and deliveries planned. Bergey’s Truck Centers Uptime Certified locations provide a place to go to immediately to get to the bottom of the problem and fix it without having to schedule an appointment or wait for quotes and services.

How it Works:

Pulling into a service location that’s Uptime Certified is like accessing an express lane for commercial trucks capable of dealing with a full range of unexpected repair problems in a matter of hours instead of days. That means it not only saves time, but also eliminates the uncertainty of whether or not you’ll need to make adjustments to your schedule or require a temporary or permanent equipment replacement to meet your obligations.

Let’s take a look at the steps for the Certified Uptime Process:

1 – CHECK IN

When you arrive, your service advisor will perform a walk-around and access your vehicle’s data. Communication begins here and continues until your truck is back in service.

2 – INITIAL DIAGNOSTICS

Initial diagnostics are completed within two hours of your arrival. This enables you to start making decisions for trucks, drivers and loads earlier in the repair process.

3 – UPTIME BAY

If initial diagnostics indicate a quick repair—repair orders less than four hours of labor—your vehicle remains in the Uptime Bay for service. Your service advisor will keep you in the loop on the status of your repair. With the option of using Mack/Volvo ASIST direct messaging, you will receive status alerts throughout the entire service process. We’ll also count on you for timely approvals along the way.

4 – ADVANCED DIAGNOSTICS

Vehicles that require more than 45 minutes of diagnostics make a transition to the Advanced Diagnostics area. This ensures that longer diagnostics do not back up the Uptime Bay.

5 – ADVANCED BAY

Vehicles with repairs requiring over four hours of labor move to the Advanced Bay. Short jobs are never delayed by long jobs. As soon as information is available, you’ll be advised regarding anticipated repair time and costs. Mack/Volvo ASIST is utilized to manage the timeline and all communication.
