The Dealer Support & Aftersales
There are over 100 DEDICATED Commercial Vehicle Dealerships, placed across the UK. Many of our dealers are open 24 hours per day for servicing, resulting in less down time. Our dealers are dedicated Commercial Vehicle Operations and not a car and van network meaning that they understand the importance of the vehicle being in operation. There is a strong emphasis on fixing the vehicle due to the fact that when a commercial vehicle is off the road, it has a detrimental effect on the customer. All Sprinter and Vito vans benefit from the Assyst system meaning that the vehicle will inform you when the vehicle requires a service. It is based on usage rather than mileage and it allows the intervals to be extended to between 24,000 miles and 31,000 miles on average for the Sprinter. The Dealer Network has over 130 fully equipped service vans dedicated to “Service 24h” to provide the highest levels of response. Please note, this service is provided by our own technicians and not any third party company which benefits the subcontractor due to the fact that the vans only carry Mercedes Benz authorised parts and diagnostic machines which enables us to achieve over 80% first time roadside fix rate.
