Elite Commercial Service Centers are part of an all-new network of dedicated large-bay service hubs at Ford™ dealers nationwide. These service facilities are designed around the needs of commercial customers. They will feature state-of-the-art equipment, extended hours, mobile service vans, Elite-trained technicians, and electric vehicle certification.

An estimated 32 million commercial vehicles are on the road across North America. According to studies, nearly half of businesses surveyed are extending the life cycles of their vehicle fleets. In contrast, over half of commercial fleets reported two or more unscheduled maintenance events per month, with vehicles out of service for about two days on average.
