A new finance scheme for the purchase of new cars that will be concluded in two days has been introduced in Nigeria, courtesy of Mutual Benefits Assurance Plc and Truckmasters Nigeria Limited.

Specifically, the scheme would enable interested people to acquire Hyundai and Nissan vehicles cars in 48 hours.

The Group Managing Director, Mutual Benefits, Mr. Akin Ogunbiyi, said this during the inauguration of the easy lease auto finance deal in Lagos.

“Nigerians can now acquire their cars in 48 hours through this partnership with Truckmasters,” he said.

The Mutual Benefits boss said insurance is an important aspect of car ownership, adding that the firm was offering an innovative comprehensive insurance on every car and its owner.

“It is a back to back process, which will make claims administration easy for the customers,” he said.

Tony Arenyeka of Truckmasters said the firm is an authorised dealer of the HMNL for Hyundai vehicles in Nigeria.

He said the unique features of the easy life programme were the speed of delivery, shortened approval process from request time to ownership, thus eliminating the bottlenecks usually associated with the traditional banking system.

According to him, Truckmasters and Mutual Benefits believe in the ability of the programme to improve the wellbeing of Nigerians through a convenient acquisition of new vehicles.

Basic features of the easy lease, he said, included phased payment with better cash planning, allowing between 25 to 30 per cent down payment, professionally packaged comprehensive insurance with free tracking device, flexible payment tenures of up to 36 months, and vehicle price discount.

Arenyeka said the customer would be taking delivery of his or her car within 48 hours after meeting and completing the documentation requirements.

As a partner, he said Truckmasters would take extra steps in ensuring that Hyundai cars were available at affordable prices.

Through the lease, he said Nigerians had been encouraged to buy new vehicles to reduce premature maintenance associated with used vehicles.

LOCALLY-ASSEMBLED VEHICLES TO GET SPEED LIMITERS

As part of efforts to reduce the rate of speed-related accidents in Nigeria, the National Automotive Development and Design Council has directed all vehicle manufacturing plants in the country to install the speed-limiting device in their vehicles.
A deadline for compliance on the installation of the device in all vehicles being imported into the country has also been given.
AUTO POLICY CAUSING HIGH MARITIME JOB LOSSES – EXPERT

In a letter to President Muhammadu Buhari, a member of the Presidential Taskforce on Customs Reform, Mr. Lucky Amiwero, has called on the Federal Government to review the policy, due to its negative impact on the economy.
He said, “The impact associated with the implementation of the auto policy is as follows: the diversion of cars carrying vessel to neighbouring West African ports as a result of high tariff on imported vehicles; and the reduction of the maritime workforce by 70 per cent, which affects mostly licensed customs agents, importers, dealers and Nigerians abroad.”
UNDERSTANDING THE HISSING & SQUEAKY SOUND FROM TRUCKS

Ever wondered why trucks and buses make funny squeaking and hissing sounds? Well, the squeaking is the air escaping after braking and the hissing sound is the automatic bypass safety valves at work, ensuring the air pressure remains at the correct level.
Since a main advantage of air-brakes systems is their ability to use air to operate, the compressor is constantly kicking on and kicking off to refill the reservoirs with pressurized air. When the compressor builds too much air, the valves open, producing that loud hiss which probably gets some of us wondering…What the heck is leaking..lol!
SAFETY TIPS! COPING WITH POTHOLES

Hitting potholes can throw your vehicle\'s front end out of alignment. If you feel your car \"pulling\" during driving, that\'s a clue that you could have a problem.

Check the tread on your tyres. Uneven tread wear can be a sign of misalignment. If you hit a severe pothole, have the vehicle\'s alignment and tyre balance checked.

When you hit a pothole you can damage your tyre and/or the metal wheel of your vehicle. Keeping your tyres properly inflated will help reduce damage from potholes and other road hazards.

The impact of potholes on tyres increases dramatically with speed and can cause hidden, internal damage that could lead to tyre failure weeks, or even months, later. It\'s best to avoid potholes entirely, but if that\'s not possible, don\'t brake during the pothole impact. Instead, apply brakes before hitting a pothole and release them just before impact. Braking during the impact sets up the tyre and wheel assembly for a \"solid hit\" against the edge of the hole. Less severe damage occurs when a tyre is rolling than when it is skidding over a hole during braking.
