Hino Trucks has updated its warranty coverage, so 2020 model-year Allison-transmission-equipped Hinos will now include a five-year unlimited mile transmission warranty effective immediately, Hino announced.
This new warranty gives customers up to two additional years of coverage and eliminates mileage limits so there's no additional cost to customers.
Allison transmissions offered by Hino Trucks are included on vocation applications. The new transmission warranty applies to Class 6 through Class 8 and includes Hino models 238, 258, 268, 338, as well as the new Hino XL Series.
The update comes on top of Hino Trucks standard 5-year engine warranty, emissions warranty, and connected vehicle services Hino Insight Remote Diagnostics and Case Management.
"We continuously strive to deliver the lowest cost of ownership for our customers," said Glenn Ellis, Hino's senior vice president of customer experience. "With the durability and reliability of our proprietary engines and mated Allison Transmissions it has made it possible to extend to five years of coverage at no charge to our customers."
Allison transmissions are standard on conventional Hino trucks, including the recently launched XL Series.
“We are proud to partner with Hino in offering this extended transmission coverage including our FuelSense 2.0 package," said Rohan Barua, Allison's vice president of OEM sales. "The commitment to quality and workmanship at Allison enables us to offer this extension and further enhances our customers' confidence in the reliability and durability of Allison Transmission products."
