ADAS Calibrations

According to Repairer Driven News

A recent Forbes article written by the President of ADAS Solutions at Ascential Technologies says education and training, regulatory oversight, and consumer awareness are needed to adress the threat of improper collision repair on vehicles that require calibrations.  

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are in 90% of new vehicles.  The National Highway Trafic Safety Administration (NHSTA) has finalized a new mandate to require automatic emergency breaking in all vehicles by 2029.  Brunno Mortti writes in the article.

Mortti notes that NHSTA claims that the mandate will save 360 lives a year and prevent at least 24,000 injures.  

"However, a concerning trend has emerged where vehicles that get into accidents and need repair aren't having their sensors properly calibrated based on OEM standards, or even worse, not calibrated at all" the article says "This oversight can have a profound impact on the effectiveness of these features and poses a substaintial risk to drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.   

This is why we are STRONGLY recommending that you use a service to detrimine when ADAS calibrfations are required.  We are been using ADAS Think and have been very pleased with the product and information.
