New Fleet Manager Joins U.S. Automotive!

Carla Keiser, former co-owner of Keiser Equipment Company, has joined U.S. Automotive, Inc. as Fleet Accounts Manager. Keiser will serve as a liaison between area fleet managers and the ASA-trained expert technicians at three Springfield and Nixa U.S. Automotive locations. 

“I chose U.S. Automotive because I’m so very impressed by how dedicated the whole team is about protecting our customers’ valuable assets,” Keiser said. “Our owner Terry Hyden is truly passionate about his business and the entire automotive repair industry. Our technicians receive more than ninety hours of professional training every year, and that just doesn’t happen at most shops. It’s the reason we can offer a fleet repair warranty of two years or 24,000 miles when most shops offer no warranty at all.”

U.S. Automotive serves fleets of all sizes, including the outside sales professional’s single company vehicle. Their service includes accessible hours, convenient locations, shuttle service, customized service plans, vehicle history maintenance, overnight indoor secure storage and 24-hour towing. U.S. Automotive is currently authorized by the following national plans:

ARI Automotive Resources International
Enterprise Fleet Maintenance
LeasePlan
Voyager Fleet Systems
Donlen Corporation
Wright Express
PHH Arzal
Wheels/Map
GE Capital Fleet Services

“I’m particularly excited about meeting all the north Springfield business owners,” Keiser said, “as our newly opened East Kearney location gives them a choice in quality fleet maintenance which they didn’t have before. We have the same state-of-the-art equipment north side as we have in our other stores, and are totally committed to our fleet customers at all locations.” 

U.S. Automotive is located in Springfield at 330 E. Kearney St. and 1753 S. West Bypass and in Nixa at 1842 N. Deffer Drive. Fleet managers may contact Carla Keiser at 417-865-9511 or Carla@usautomotiveinc.com.
