Wingfoot Adds Truck Care Center in Arizona

Goodyear’s Wingfoot Commercial Systems has expanded its on-highway service network footprint with the recent opening of a Wingfoot Truck Care Center in Winslow, Ariz.

The full-service, 10,400-square-foot facility is the Wingfoot network’s 42nd Wingfoot Truck Care Center. It provides 24/7 roadside assistance; new Goodyear and Dunlop truck tires, plus retreaded tires; oil changes and other preventive maintenance services; and light mechanical services, including brake, electrical and heating/air conditioning repair; and more.

The outlet employs nine people and has three service bays, each dedicated to a different type of service.

“The Winslow Wingfoot Truck Care Center is located on a Flying J property at Exit 255 along Interstate 40, a major shipping route that stretches from California to North Carolina,” said Paul Wanstreet, Wingfoot president. “Our customers asked us to be on I-40 so we can provide them with the premium products and services they need to keep their trucks rolling.”

Wingfoot Truck Care Centers, along with Boss Truck Shops Inc. and Highway Service Ventures/Patriot Farms Flying J, are members of Goodyear’s Uni-Maxx Truck Care network, which encompasses nearly 80 locations throughout the U.S.
