Goodyear’s Wingfoot Commercial Tire Systems operation opened a new Wingfoot Truck Care Center in Baytown, Texas.
The 10,300-square-foot facility is the 38th Wingfoot location, and is located along I-10, a major east-to-west shipping corridor, at exit 789.
Officially opened on Aug. 17, the center sells Goodyear, Dunlop and Kelly truck tires, plus retreaded tires, and provides oil changes and other preventive maintenance services; light mechanical services, such as brake, electrical and heating/air conditioning repair; and 24/7 roadside assistance to get trucks back on the road quickly.
“The Baytown outlet has three service bays, each dedicated to a different type of service,” said Clint Schrock, Wingfoot director of on-highway operations. “One bay is primarily used for tire replacement and tire-related services, another is dedicated to light mechanical work, and the third has a full-length oil change pit and serves as an express lube bay.”
Schrock said further expansion across the U.S. is a priority for the Wingfoot operations.
