In the Shop
It’s a fact in the vocational world that trucks are going to break-down. Off-road heavy hauling and logging in Canada beats up equipment. Edison plans for this by engineering our parts and equipment to make them as easy to service as possible for your mechanics.
Edison has a multi-layer process to achieve this goal:
The first step is early involvement of mechanics into the design process, making sure experienced mechanics look at the design for serviceability
Using commonly sourced parts, we try wherever possible to limit any custom built parts and opt for the common aftermarket parts companies use. This makes sure when something breaks you can go into any parts store and have the piece you need to get back on the road
no fault codes, if there is a fault our computer will tell you exact what the check engine light means
