To identify the knowledge gaps within the auto repair industry, EndeavorB2B launched the ADAS Knowledge and Capabilities Survey during the winter, polling 344 shop owners, managers, and technicians across repair shops and tire dealerships. The results pointed to widespread uncertainty: 61% of respondents said their shops have no systematic process to identify which vehicles need calibration at intake, nearly half lack a business plan for expanding into ADAS services, and only a small fraction feel their shop has a clear strategy for explaining ADAS-related price increases to customers.
