Effective immediately, Navistar says an OnCommand Connection telematics device – including two free years of service – will be offered as standard equipment on all International LT Series, RH Series and LoneStar models using International or Cummins engines in the U.S. and Canada.

The OnCommand Connection device integrates a cellular-enabled hardware platform with a range of other systems, including the OnCommand Connection Advanced Remote Diagnostics platform.

The OnCommand Connection platform is built with an open architecture and integrated with over 25 telematics service providers, allowing fleets to manage all their vehicles through one interface, regardless of make or model.

Michael Cancelliere, president of Navistar Truck and Parts, cited the important role OnCommand Connection services are playing in enabling fleets to convert reactive vehicle maintenance into predictive maintenance for improved uptime.

“Making OnCommand Connection telematics standard in our on-highway vehicles demonstrates we are fully committed to delivering on our brand promise of customer uptime,” he says. “Our ultimate goal is to convert all maintenance into planned, routine maintenance that enables trucks to maximize the time they spend on the road.”
