LOGAN TOWNSHIP, N.J. – Mitsubishi Fuso has become the first manufacturer of medium-duty cabover trucks to augment its bumper-to-bumper warranty (36 months, unlimited milage) with a limited 5-year powertrain warranty, available beginning with its new 2006 models.

“The primary purpose of this new 5-year limited powertrain warranty is to demonstrate to our customers our commitment to quality in a way that benefits them directly,” said According to Robert McDowell, executive vice president and COO of Mitsubishi Fuso Truck of America. “At the same time, we’ve thoroughly assessed our vehicle performance, reliability and manufacturing integrity, and we’ve concluded that offering the new limited 5-year warranty will also give us a definite competitive advantage in the medium-duty commercial truck market.”

    Limitations or exclusions to Mitsubishi Fuso's Class 4 and Class 5 bumper-to-bumper and powertrain warranties include, but are not necessarily limited to, the expected list of fluids and filters, normal wear items like tires, brake and clutch linings and wiper blades, and custom truck bodies, plus failures due to abuse, accident, improper maintenance and the like.
