Hino Trucks Releases New Preventive Service Care Program
Hino Trucks announced a new preventive service care program for its 195 diesel model trucks, called HinoCare.

Hino Trucks announced a new preventive service care program for its 195 diesel model trucks called HinoCare. The two-year or 60,000-mile service program is available on all 2013-MY and 2014-MY 195 and 195 double cab trucks delivered between July 1, 2013 and March 31, 2013. This is a no-cost program.
Already backed by a five-year, 175,000 mile engine warranty and three years of roadside assistance coverage through HinoWatch, according to Hino, the new preventive service care program brings greater value while ensuring low cost of ownership.
During the first two years of ownership (or 60,000 miles), HinoCare covers all standard checks and replacements, such as:
Replacements: engine oil, fuel filter, air fileter replacements, transmission fluid, and differential oil replacement.
Checks: steering, brake pads, battery terminal, wheel checks, gauges, warning lights, mirror, wipers, engine belt, and air intake system.
“Preventive service doesn’t just enhance the lifespan of regularly used equipment, it enables higher performance. Our customers will save money now with HinoCare, while also protecting their investment and adding longevity to their Hino truck down the road,” said George Daniels, VP of service operations for Hino Trucks.
