1 Approved Auto Repair Background & Overview The Approved Auto Repair (AAR) program was created to address one of the most frequent consumer complaints in America unsatisfactory automobile repairs. The AAR program does this by directing members and other consumers to AAA-approved repair facilities that meet and maintain high professional standards. Since the AAR program began in 1975, more than 7,700 automotive repair facilities have been approved in the United States and Canada. Initially, the AAR program certified only general mechanical repair businesses. More recently, however, AAA clubs have been given the option to also approve collision repair centers (Approved Auto Body) and specialty auto repair (Service) facilities. Individual AAA clubs administer the AAR program with support from the National Office. There are over 200 service specialists in the various AAR programs, each with Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) certification and an extensive background in automotive service. A stringent set of program standards guides the clubs, and each AAR program is regularly accredited by the National Office. The AAR approval process is tough. When a shop applies, a service specialist inspects the facility for cleanliness, proper tools, adequate technical training, and appropriate technician certifications. A survey is then performed with a significant number of facility customers to obtain their opinions on how well the business meets their automotive service needs. Every question on the survey must receive at least 90% positive responses before the facility will be considered for approval. AAA also checks the facility s reputation with government and consumer agencies, and runs an insurance and financial background check. A committee of AAA club officials makes the final decision on whether a facility receives approval. AAR facilities sign a contract in which they agree to provide customers with: a written estimate not to be exceeded by more than 10% without prior approval, a 12-month/12,000 mile parts and labor warranty, the return of old parts if desired, and the right to have AAA arbitrate any dispute between an AAA member and the facility. AAR full-service mechanical repair facilities also agree to provide AAA members with a free maintenance inspection on request in conjunction with other paid repairs. Although the AAR program standards do not require discounts, many AAR shops offer special savings to members by voluntarily participating in the AAA Show Your Card & Save program. While non-members do not necessarily receive the same benefits that AAA members are entitled to, the general motoring public does profit from the knowledge that a repair shop displaying the AAR sign has met AAA s tough standards and can be counted on to do a good job. Non-member repair complaints are typically recorded by AAA clubs, and the facility is made aware there is a problem, but the arbitration benefit of the AAR contract does not apply in these situations. To ensure an ongoing customer satisfaction index (CSI) of 90% or better, every AAR facility is required to participate in an independent and ongoing program of monitoring their customers satisfaction. This can be done by distributing AAA-approved service evaluation cards to customers, or by performing an annual re-survey of repair customers. AAA will also consider other independent CSI monitoring programs on a case-by-case basis. Regardless of the CSI program used, the approved facility must regularly report the results to the Club. Over the years, AAR facilities have Version 1.2 April 2004

6 Approved Auto Repair Benefits Participation in the AAR program provides a variety of benefits. Some, such as AAA affiliation, enhance a repair facility s standing in the eyes of consumers. Other benefits, such as repair referrals, can help increase a shop s business. In addition, AAA has leveraged the buying power of over 7,700 approved repair facilities to negotiate special savings on many business needs and services. These AAA-unique offers take dollars out of a shop s operating expenses and move them directly to the bottom line. The range of AAR benefits is being constantly upgraded, and the following is only a partial list. AAA AFFILIATION Affiliation with the nation s largest and most recognized provider of high-quality automotive and travel related services. AAR shops receive extensive identification materials, and a limited license to use the AAA emblem in their advertising. REFERRAL BUSINESS AAA Referrals AAA Call Centers and Emergency Road Service personnel refer members and the public to Approved Auto Repair facilities. FACILITY AND PROGRAM PROMOTION AAR program advertising and facility listings in club publications. AAR program promotion in member e-zines. AAA Car Care Month (October) promotions that include AAR facilities. AAA National Office AAR program promotion via public service channels.

8 AAR Facility Responsibilities Once a repair shop has been accepted by AAA as an Approved Auto Repair (AAR) facility, there are certain responsibilities the facility must accept as a participant in the program. Listed below are the most important elements. For a complete list of requirements, see the AAR Program Standards. Customer Satisfaction Tracking AAA maintains very high customer service standards, and expects businesses that affiliate with the association to provide similar levels of service. To ensure this takes place, every AAR facility agrees to participate in an independent and ongoing program of measuring their customers satisfaction. General Customer Responsibilities The AAR program is a AAA member benefit, but it is also a way for the association to help to improve the auto repair experience for all motorists that use AAA-approved shops. Toward this end, AAR facilities agree to provide every service customer with these benefits: Written Estimate Every customer will be given a written estimate of the cost of work to be performed on their vehicle (excluding sales tax). The final cost of the work may not exceed the estimate by more than 10 percent unless authorized by the customer in advance. 12/12 Warranty Unless otherwise specified in writing prior to the start of work, all repairs must be guaranteed (both parts and labor) for a minimum of 12 months or 12,000 miles. Return Of Parts On request, replaced parts will be returned to the customer. Parts that must be returned to the manufacturer under a warranty or exchange program are excluded from this requirement, but must be available for inspection when the customer picks up their vehicle. AAA Member Responsibilities In addition to the items listed above, AAR shops agree to provide AAA members with two additional and exclusive benefits: Free Maintenance Inspection On request, in conjunction with other paid repairs, AAR facilities (full service mechanical repair shops only) will inspect a member s vehicle at no charge for items that most frequently contribute to roadside breakdowns. At the time of vehicle pickup, the member will receive a written recommendation of any needed maintenance or repairs. Dispute Resolution AAR facilities agree to let AAA investigate any dispute between an AAA member and an AAR facility that cannot be satisfactorily resolved by the two parties. AAA s resolution decision is binding on the facility, but not on the AAA member who may seek recourse through other avenues. While non-members are not eligible for the dispute resolution process, AAA clubs typically record nonmember complaints and inform the repair facility that there is a problem. The handling of the dispute from that point forward is at the discretion of the repair facility.
