Lasco Ford - Ford Mobile Commercial Service and First-Bay-Open Priority for Work Trucks near Brighton, MI
When schedules are tight and routes cannot slip, Mobile Commercial Service becomes the difference between a vehicle parked and a vehicle producing. Around Brighton, the right service plan blends on-site maintenance with a clear path to priority in-shop support, so your team spends more time moving and less time waiting. Mobile Service covers a surprising range of needs at your lot — oil and filter changes, cabin and fuel filters, batteries, wipers, lamps, tire rotations, brake inspections, and many factory software updates and recalls — while our Commercial Vehicle Center reserves First-Bay-Open access for the heavier repairs that require a lift, specialized tooling, or tall-bay clearance. It is an uptime-first approach designed around how your business actually operates.
To get the most from on-site visits, organize service bundles by vehicle type and mileage bands so several units receive PMs in one stop. Pre-approve common jobs and share RO numbers ahead of time; provide a safe, flat area with key access and clearances around doors, hoods, and rear equipment. Our mobile technicians arrive with Ford factory diagnostics and a stocked service van to complete most routine work without moving your vehicles. When a driveline concern, diesel aftertreatment issue, or upfit repair exceeds on-site scope, First-Bay-Open scheduling gets you into the next opening so diagnosis and parts ordering begin immediately. That handoff is seamless — your advisor already has notes, photos, and test results captured during the mobile visit, shortening the in-shop process.
- What Mobile Service can handle: PM services and filters, batteries and charging checks, lamps and switches, wipers and belts, tire rotations and inspections, many recall actions and software updates, basic electrical diagnosis.
- When to head to the shop: Lift-required brake or suspension work, transmission or driveline repairs, diesel fuel system service, DPF cleaning and in-depth aftertreatment diagnostics, structural and upfit mounting concerns.
- How to prepare your yard: Assign parking, stage keys, share VIN lists and mileage, pre-approve standard PMs, and note any upfit items needing attention (plows, liftgates, refrigeration, shelving).
Upfit-heavy fleets benefit most from this hybrid model. High-roof Transits with shelving and auxiliary HVAC, F-550 chassis cabs with cranes and service bodies, or cutaway vans with refrigeration units all demand technicians who understand how added loads affect alternators, batteries, cooling systems, airflow, and mounting hardware. On-site, we can validate battery isolators, test charging output, check for loose grounds, and inspect filters and belts. In the shop, tall-bay clearance and heavy-duty lifts allow safe, efficient access to verify wiring protection, torque mounting hardware, balance PTO and hydraulic settings, and align front ends that carry plows or heavy bumpers.
For busy operators, the final piece is administrative ease. Consolidated invoicing, digital approvals, and clean documentation by VIN and PO prevent paperwork from slowing key handoff. Coordinate a recurring cadence — monthly for high-mileage delivery vans, quarterly for seasonal rigs — and your fleet stays on its maintenance curve. The result is predictable service windows, fewer surprise breakdowns, and faster cycle times when more serious repairs arise. Lasco Ford, serving Brighton, Hartland, and Howell, aligns Mobile Commercial Service with First-Bay-Open priority so your vehicles receive the right work, in the right place, at the right time with an uptime mindset that keeps business on schedule.
