Message from our GM about COVID-19

A Note to Our Valued Customers

Like many of you reading this, we have spent the last several days and weeks learning more about the Coronavirus (COVID-19) and how it is impacting our world. We want to reassure you that the health and safety of our guests, employees and all of their families is our top priority.

As a company, our role and responsibilities are focused in two areas: the health and wellbeing of our employees and our customers. With that in mind, Mankato Motors is taking trusted guidance from the CDC, Minnesota Auto Dealers Association, and Minnesota’s health agencies.

While all three of our locations remain open and continue to operate with the same level of customer care and service, Mankato Motors has taken a series of precautionary steps to maintain a level of hygiene and cleanliness for our visiting customers and employees, including:

• Increased deep cleaning and sanitizing procedures across all major touch points in our locations.
• Continued education on correct hand washing and respiratory hygiene practices.
• Use of gloves by all automotive technicians and other affiliated service employees who encounter customer vehicles; wipe down of vehicles before and after service repairs, test drives, and movement of vehicles.
• Replacing handshakes with alternative greetings. We encourage employees and guests to stay home if they are feeling symptomatic.

In addition, Mankato Motors sales teams are ready and willing to bring our vehicles to you. Customers interested in test drives or working directly with a member of our sales staff from the comfort of their own home or workplace should contact a Mankato Motors representative to schedule an in-person appointment. Plus, you can shop our latest inventory and vehicle specials online anytime at mankatomotors.com.

As the world copes with the growing impact of this outbreak, we remain steadfast in the belief that people will uphold personal responsibility to prevent the spread of this virus through responsible hygiene practices and self-quarantining practices as needed.

As a company, we’ll continue to do what is right for our employees, our customers and the community. We will continue to closely monitor the situation and we are optimistic this will be a temporary situation. We are privileged to serve you and this community and look forward to seeing you soon.

Sincerely,

Brian Taylor

General Manager

Mankato Motor Company
