It's time to offer ADAS calibration service with confidence. Here is why you want to stay ahead in the evolving dealership industry.
ADAS (or Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) is an increasingly-popular topic within the automotive industry, with more modern vehicles equipped with ADAS features than ever before. When your customer purchases a vehicle, they expect a safe and well-maintained product that will help to protect themselves and their families on the road. Maintain this trust by ensuring that your vehicle systems are as accurate and as up-to-date as possible.
ADAS plays a crucial role in vehicle safety. If these systems are not functioning correctly, the overall safety is compromised. Outsourcing calibrations to other companies limits your ability to verify if that they have been done correctly.
The demand for ADAS-related services is growing. Dealerships can capitalize on this trend by offering specialized ADAS service packages, repairs, or even upgrades, creating a new revenue stream for their service departments.
Offering ADAS services demonstrates your dealership's commitment to providing comprehensive care for customers' vehicles. Build trust by offering expertise in an area that's becoming vital to drivers' safety and convenience.
As ADAS becomes more complex, dealerships with well-trained staff have a competitive edge. Technicians trained in these systems can handle calibration, system updates, troubleshooting, and component replacements.

Suspension repairs impact the vehicle's geometry and should be followed not only by a vehicle alignment, but also a reset of the vehicle's ADAS systems. OEMs determine when an alignment and ADAS reset is required or recommended.
