Daimler Buses Gets "Smart" at Its Service Centers

Greensboro, N.C. (May 22, 2009) – Daimler Buses North America introduced today an exciting new program for its three company-operated service centers beginning in June 2009. Daimler Buses will begin providing smart cars for customers use while their coaches and buses are being serviced at any of the three company owned service centers in Florida, North Carolina and New Jersey. This program is unique in the industry and supports Daimler Buses’ philosophy of exceptional customer service.

“smart is a brand by Daimler, and we are excited about leveraging it to support our Setra and Sprinter customers. We pride ourselves on our commitment to customer service and offering the smart car to our customers while they have service work being performed on their coaches allows them greater flexibility and convenience during visits to our service centers,” said Patrick Scully, chief commercial officer for Daimler Buses North America. “It is another example of how we seek to put our customer’s needs first.”

Daimler Buses also recently enhanced its Customer Assistance Network (CAN) technical support hotline by ensuring that we have staff answering the toll-free line 24-hours, seven days a week to assist both Setra and Sprinter customers.

“Our Setra and Sprinter operators expect assistance regardless of the time of day, and we cannot agree more,” said Paul Conover, director of product support for Daimler Buses North America. “Having a live person ready to assist you in a time of need maintains our commitment to our customers.”

Customers can reach the technical support hotline by calling 800.882.8054 or find more information online at www.daimler-busna.com.
