The expansion includes Class 2-7 vehicles after the Class 8 trucks introduction generated strong interest from dealers and truck owners.
NTP Co. states the new ELECTRONIX Package covers critical electronics and systems that you shouldn’t, or can’t, drive without like adaptive braking, anti-roll sensor, collision avoidance, navigation, power windows/locks, turn signals, wiper motor, and more. The ELECTRONIX Package can be added to any NTP or Premium 2000 equipment protection plan for light-, medium-, and heavy-duty trucks, the company adds.

“Commercial truck OEMs include a growing list of high-tech electronics on all their new models that provide more efficient truck operation and driver assistance features common with the automotive industry,” said Geoff Stigler, chief commercial officer at NTP Co. “As trucks age, we see an increasing failure rate of these electronics. So, our product development team created the industry’s most comprehensive electronics coverage plan available today. Like our other critical equipment coverage plans, protecting important electronic components after the OEM warranty expires is vital to the uptime and operation of the truck.”
“For over 40 years, NTP Co. has led the trucking industry in equipment protection innovation, like in 2020 when we introduced the Comfort Package to cover radiator, HVAC, alternator, starter, and more,” adds Craig O’Hare, vice president of dealer sales. “Properly functioning electronics systems is critical to the trucks overall operations. Having repair coverage when these systems fail not only keeps drivers on the road making money, but keeps them safe too.”
