Ford Motor Company has opened its 700th Quick Lane Tire and Auto Center in the United States. The milestone store is located at Grapevine Ford Lincoln in Grapevine, Texas.
Quick Lane sells tires from 11 brands, including Goodyear, Michelin and Continental. Last year, US stores sold a record 1.4 million tires and posted record sales of nearly $800 million.
Ford plans to take Quick Lane global by opening more than 100 additional store outside the United States.
“Quick Lane works for everyone – the customer, the dealer and the community,” said Frederiek Toney, president of Ford Customer Service. “For the customer, it’s easy in, easy out, and fast, high-quality service all around. For the dealer, it provides a steady stream of new customers from all makes, a significant portion of who sometimes transition to Ford vehicle ownership. For the community, it’s another source of jobs, and represents early career experience for young technicians who develop essential trade skills before moving on to bigger jobs in the dealership repair shop.”
