Tenneco continues part number additions

The year 2017 ended much the same as it began with Tenneco as the company announced another 12 new part numbers for its Monroe Quick-Strut assembly, adding more than 1.1 million service opportunities.

The new assemblies are now available for the following vehicle applications:

• 2005-2007 Ford Five Hundred (front)
• 2005-2007 Ford Freestyle (front)
• 2005-2007 Mercury Montego (front)
• 2006-2008 Subaru Forester (rear)
• 2009-2013 Toyota Highlander (rear)
• 2013-2015 Toyota Venza (rear)
• 2000-2004 Subaru Outback (front)

The latest additions pushed Tenneco’s final number of Quick-Strut parts added this year to 296, covering more than 27 late-model passenger vehicles, both domestic and import.

Also introduced in December were Monroe OESpectrum rear shock absorbers for 2013-2015 Chevrolet Spark and 2007-2013 Suzuki SX4 models, and OESpectrum front struts for 2007-2016 Honda CR-V and 2012-2016 Toyota Camry models.

“We are extending the proven quality advantages of Monroe Quick-Strut assemblies to millions of additional vehicles each year,” said John Perrin, executive director of product management for Tenneco’s North America Aftermarket business. “Strut replacement is a milestone service opportunity – a service provider might only have one chance to perform this service over the life of a specific vehicle. Given the importance of this job, repair professionals are looking for top-quality products that will help ensure the OE-style ride and exceptional reliability demanded by consumers.”
