Driving Towards Safer Roads: AutoXpress' Commitment During Road Safety Week and Beyond

As Kenya marks Road Safety Week on November 19, 2024, AutoXpress remains dedicated to improving road safety for all drivers through its continuous efforts to ensure vehicles are safe and roadworthy. One of AutoXpress’ key initiatives is offering a free 30-point vehicle inspection to all motorists—year-round and with no strings attached. This service ensures that drivers can confidently assess whether their vehicles are fit for the road, contributing to safer driving conditions for everyone.

Free 30-Point Vehicle Inspection: Always Prioritizing Safety

AutoXpress has long provided motorists with a free, comprehensive 30-point vehicle inspection to ensure that their cars are safe to drive. This inspection covers critical safety aspects of the vehicle, including the condition of the tyres, brakes, suspension, and engine. By identifying potential issues early, drivers can take the necessary steps to avoid breakdowns or accidents, ensuring both their safety and that of other road users.

Importantly, this service isn’t limited to Road Safety Week—it’s offered throughout the year as part of AutoXpress’ ongoing commitment to road safety. There is no obligation for customers to purchase anything, reinforcing AutoXpress’ focus on keeping Kenyan roads as safe as possible.

World-Class Technician Training: Ensuring Quality Service

At the heart of AutoXpress’ high service standards is a significant investment in technician training. All AutoXpress technicians undergo hands-on training at the company’s physical training school, ensuring that they have the skills necessary to provide top-tier service. In addition, technicians, along with retail customer assistants, participate in continuous online courses, staying up-to-date with the latest developments in automotive technology.

This dual approach to training guarantees that every AutoXpress customer receives the best service possible. Whether it’s a routine inspection or a more complex repair, customers can trust that their vehicles are in the hands of highly trained professionals.

Genuine Products: Safety from Start to Finish

AutoXpress is also dedicated to ensuring that customers receive only genuine, high-quality automotive products, and the company takes every step necessary to ensure these products are safe and reliable. The journey of a product—from importation to storage and ultimately installation—matters greatly when it comes to maintaining its integrity.

Proper importation, storage, and handling of products are essential to preserving their quality, and AutoXpress excels in this process. The Kenyan market is flooded with counterfeit automotive parts, which can be dangerous and lead to serious vehicle malfunctions. Substandard tyres, batteries, or brake pads can cause accidents, putting drivers and passengers at risk. AutoXpress takes every precaution to source and supply only authentic products from trusted manufacturers, ensuring that its customers have access to safe, durable parts at affordable prices.

"Eyes on the Road" Campaign: Protecting the Most Vulnerable

AutoXpress is also deeply invested in improving the safety of children traveling in school buses through its annual "Eyes on the Road" campaign in partnership with Bridgestone and Isuzu. This initiative provides free health screenings for both school bus drivers and their buses. By ensuring that drivers are healthy and that buses are roadworthy, AutoXpress helps safeguard the well-being of the country’s most precious passengers—its children.

In cases where drivers need medical attention or corrective measures, such as medication or prescription glasses, AutoXpress covers the full cost of these treatments. This initiative underscores the company’s dedication to ensuring that those responsible for transporting children are fully equipped to do so safely and effectively.

A Long-Standing Commitment to Safer Roads

AutoXpress’ efforts go beyond business—they are a reflection of its core commitment to making Kenya’s roads safer for everyone. Through its free vehicle inspections, world-class technician training, careful sourcing and handling of genuine products, and campaigns like "Eyes on the Road," AutoXpress continues to lead the way in promoting road safety.

As we observe Road Safety Week, AutoXpress remains focused on ensuring that Kenyan motorists have access to the tools and services they need to stay safe on the roads. By providing these essential services, AutoXpress is helping to build a safer driving environment for all.
