Recently, Ford reached an extraordinary milestone when opening its 700th Quick Lane Tire & Auto Center, and we're proud to say that the new store is located at Grapevine Ford! Designed to fulfill the needs of those with active lifestyles, our new Quick Lane facility offers fast service with no appointments necessary, and all vehicle makes and models are welcome!
"With our new Quick Lane Tire & Auto Center, our customers don't have to sacrifice speed over quality - we can provide both," said Chaz Gilmore, general manager. "We have a separate service facility with a dedicated staff that can provide timely and convenient services for all vehicle maintenance and light repairs, while providing the peace of mind of factory-trained technicians and quality parts."
The incredible success of Quick Lane has revealed that there is strong demand for quick-repair facilities that are staffed with dealership technicians. They are perfect for people with busy lives who want to have their vehicles worked on by highly qualified factory-trained mechanics, even when it comes to simple light-duty services like oil changes, brake repair or tire replacement. The dealership experience has also played a role in the success of Quick Lane, as users know they will receive exceptional customer service and courtesies like free car washes.
Because Quick Lanes have become such lucrative businesses in the U.S., Ford is now offering them around the world, where they are set to build an additional 100 stores. The facilities are also expected to be even more successful this year, topping the already outstanding numbers posted in 2013, which included a record for tire sales of 1.4 million units sold across the nation.
