Needs + past part. in New England?

[Joanne M. Despres]

Has anybody else seen this expression used north of NJ?  This
morning I opened a mailing from a Toyota dealership in Greenfield,
MA that contained the phrase "needs serviced."  I assume these
flyers are published locally, because the Toyota dealership in
Northampton sends mailings offering its own service deals (usually
for a higher price).

FWIW, Greenfield is definitely more "countrified" than Noho.
