SmarTire to Provide Tire Pressure Monitoring System for Fleetwood Motorhomes
"Tire care and maintenance is critical to the safety of our motorhome customers," said John Millis, American Coach product manager of Fleetwood, "and at American Coach, we want to provide them with the most advanced, effective solution available in the RV industry today. We believe SmarTire's TPMS solution meets that goal."
Dave Warkentin, vice president sales and marketing of SmarTire Systems, said, "Fleetwood is a market leader, not only in the number of RVs sold, but in vehicle standards, quality and innovation. We are pleased to be working together to offer its customers the finest TPMS in the marketplace."
SmarTire's SmartWave(TM) TPMS improves vehicle safety and performance by providing drivers with real-time tire information while their vehicles are in motion. At the push of a button, the SmarTire system displays each tire's pressure and temperature information. If the system detects a loss of air pressure or abnormally high tire temperature, the driver is immediately alerted by a bright warning light and an audible alarm.
