Mobile is the future; don't listen to us, just ask Google

May 21, 2018
​In a world where consumer expectations are exceptionally high, assistance is going to become the table stakes for you and your shop.

That phrase was recently spoken by Peter Leto at the NADA Show in Las Vegas this past March. That speech was part of an overall presentation to dealers about how their customers expectations are changing with the landscape that is mobile. Along with that change comes the adaptation to what their customers want. Mr. Leto's entire speech was about how Google statistics clearly indicate how we as a society are changing habits because of mobile devices. He's driving home the thought that we need to adapt because our consumers are changing, and if we don't adapt, we risk extinction.

At CAR, we saw this writing on the wall seven years ago when we first started to conceptualize how we were going create game changing auto repair software. The entire premise of our model was to give auto repair businesses the ability to interact with their customers through their auto repair software, preferably on a mobile platform. Our vision didn't stop at providing auto repair shop owners, managers and technicians mobile access... that's where it started. Our vision was to give the end consumer the ability to track all of their repairs regardless of the repair facility they chose, from dealer to the mom and pop shop around the corner.

As we built 'The Future Of Vehicle Management', we received real world feedback from customers at a small auto repair facility in Linden, New Jersey. Those customers were not only curious about the change in their experience... they adapted their experience almost immediately as if it were second nature. For two years, CAR was used without a mobile app and we witnessed customers engage in the process around repairing their vehicle. Our resolve has never been stronger and watching Mr. Leto teach dealers about the future that is mobile just shows us the fun is only getting started and we are well poised within the journey.

Learn about the difference CAR brings to the table. Bring 'The Future Of Vehicle Management' to your auto repair facility before the dealers do and take control of the change the auto industry is about to undergo. Our product works on anything with a web browser. While we recommend Google Chrome, we still regularly test our application on everything from Microsoft Edge to Firefox. We are a mobile platform that was designed that way from the start - we're not bootstrapping technology to bring you a mediocre experience. We see the future and we want to be the ones bringing it to you in this industry.

Come experience this platform, which gives your customers access through an app (iOS, Android) designed to flow through the process of fixing a vehicle. Keep your customers aware of the condition their vehicle is in and allow them the ability to make their own informed and educated decisions. Our test facility experienced ticket sales increase 40 percent; if you met the owner, you'd see he's too honest to be a salesman. Yet, through CAR, all he does is sell.

Our auto repair software is so easy to use, we explain CAR through 15 tutorial videos that are almost all 60 seconds or less each.
