AirPro Launching Market Study on Diagnostics, ADAS Calibrations
AirPro Diagnostics Chief Global Development Officer Michael Quinn provided a statement to FenderBender following his announcement at the Collision Industry Conference Tuesday, Nov. 5, that it is launching a formal study into market trends in diagnostics and ADAS calibrations, with a note that a more formal press release will follow.
"Recently, we all have been exposed to a significant amount of misinformation about diagnostics and ADAS services in our industry," the statement reads. "This has included solutions that allegedly simplify the processes but do not account for the complexities of properly diagnosing and repairing a vehicle equipped with ADAS features.
"Repairers have shared they are being told that critical steps — such as sequential pre- or in-process scans — are unnecessary, that automaker recommendations and software are irrelevant, and we are seeking to provide clarity.
"This type of misinformation jeopardizes both vehicle safety and the integrity of repair practices, and we believe it’s crucial to provide clarity.
"We will be seeking collaboration from all industry stakeholders, including this body in an effort to benefit motorist and public safety. For more information or to join as a partner, please contact us at: [email protected]."
