Ford launches Quick Lane in South Africa

The first Quick Lane Tyre and Auto Centre in South Africa has opened its doors in Silverton, Pretoria. It will provide convenient access to quality automotive service for all vehicle makes and models – particularly those that have exceeded the manufacturer’s standard warranty period.


An initiative of the Ford Motor Company, Quick Lane Tyre and Auto Centres provide motorists with expert maintenance for routine vehicle service in a short period of time.

There are 1 018 Quick Lane Tyre and Auto Centres worldwide, and more than 18 already located across sub-Saharan Africa.

The new 164 m² centre, which is adjacent to the Aurinia Ford dealership, includes three service bays, one alignment rack and certified managers and technicians.

“We’re thrilled to be in Silverton and look forward to serving its residents with our commitment to provide exceptional customer service, competitive value and a transparent experience,” says Shaun Potgiter, manager of Quick Lane Silverton.

The new location will offer customers convenient hours, a comfortable facility and service while they wait – with no appointments necessary.

The comprehensive range of vehicle services and repairs include: tyre fitment, rotation and wheel alignment; replacement of shock absorbers; brake services; oil and filter changes; batteries; alternators, starters and electrical services.

Additionally, the Quick Lane Tyre and Auto Centre handles servicing, maintenance and light repairs for suspension and steering, transmission, wiper blades, air-conditioning, lamps and bulbs, belts and hoses, as well as cooling system maintenance.
