FCA Canada Launches Mopar Certified Collision Repair Facility Program with Certified Collision Care

  • New, nation-wide partnership will see recognized, Mopar Certified Collision Repair facilities across Canada
  • Mopar — the service, parts and customer-care brand of FCA US LLC — is working in partnership with Certified Collision Care to ensure FCA vehicles are repaired for their owners to factory specification nationwide
May 18, 2016 , Windsor, Ontario -  FCA Canada announced today that it has entered into an exclusive, strategic agreement with Certified Collision Care, the Canadian division of the Assured Performance Network, made up of best-in-class body shops from across the country. Certified Collision Care will be an integral strategic partner, co-developing, launching and managing the Mopar Certified Collision Repair Facility program.

This new program will deliver joint-effort collision repair facility certification, infrastructure and turnkey programs. This will allow dealers and independent collision repair facilities to meet the qualifications necessary to be certified by FCA Canada as a collision repair facility of choice for its vehicles. The program will ensure that FCA Canada vehicle owners can choose a Certified Collision repair provider that has the proper tools, equipment, training and facility required to repair their vehicle to OEM specifications and ensure the vehicle's fit, finish, durability, functionality, value and safety are preserved. This is particularly important based upon increasingly complex vehicle design and repair requirements.
 
Leveraging Certified Collision Care’s existing processes eliminates redundant costs, making Mopar Collision Repair certification more affordable for dealerships and independently owned repair businesses that can meet requirements.
 
All existing Certified Collision Care facilities will now be recognized by FCA Canada as Mopar Certified Collision Repair Facilities on June 1, 2016, and will receive special “FCA Certified” signage as part of the joint-effort, integrated Certified Collision Care program, which uses the slogan: "Certified Once, Recognized by Many."
 
"Mopar’s commitment to support our customers starts right from the day they purchase their vehicle,” said John Eason, Mopar Service & Parts Marketing Manager, FCA Canada. “This new, nation-wide program with Certified Collision Care gives owners piece-of-mind that they have an FCA-Certified Collision Repair Facility for their vehicle should they ever need one."
 
Leanne Jefferies, VP, Canadian Operations for Certified Collision Care, said, "We are proud to partner with FCA Canada to add the Mopar Certified Collision Repair Facility Program and FCA Canada recognition to our Certified shop's credentials. The national network we are developing helps to fulfill their commitment to their vehicle buyers."
