Volvo Trucks Releases Videos Highlighting the Role of People in Uptime Services

Volvo Trucks released two short videos today emphasizing the expertise and dedication of Volvo employees involved in maximizing customer Uptime. The videos feature Martha, a Volvo Action Service agent, who astounds her colleague with her thorough knowledge of Volvo trucks and customers’ service needs. Volvo Action Service provides 24/7 customer support by proactively intervening if a potential problem is detected and ensuring a rapid response in the case of breakdown.

“We think these videos are a fun way to communicate our message that humans play a critical role in ensuring customer Uptime,” said Magnus Koeck, Volvo Trucks vice president, marketing and brand management. “Technology is important, but it takes knowledgeable, well-trained people to get the job done.”

The videos were recorded at Volvo Trucks’ new Uptime Center, which brings together in one building the people and technology needed to remotely diagnose and respond to vehicle issues in real time, help dealers troubleshoot difficult cases and find the necessary parts for repair. Locating these people and resources together improves efficiency and response time.
