AirPro Diagnostics, the industry leader in providing OEM compliant scanning, diagnostics and safety system calibrations, announced the appointment and inaugural meeting of its 2018 Industry Advisory Council.
The council addressed issues and concerns of the industry-wide scan/diagnostic revolution as well as the functionality and future enhancements of the AirPro Diagnostic tool itself.
“The team at AirPro Diagnostics is first-class. Their response time and service is hands down the best in the industry, even with our shop being all the way out here in Hawaii. Our input is always valued and we see immediate response to our requests for additional features. We are proud to serve on the council and look forward to being an integral part of the best possible scan solution for this industry,” stated advisory council member Rissa Matsumoto, Vice President of Autobody Hawaii
“There are stand-alone scan tools and there are scan tools that are basically OBD2 to Wi-Fi systems that connect to remote call centers. AirPro Diagnostics tool has the best of both worlds and more. You can scan the car on your own and if you need further assistance, you simply push one button to access assistance from their certified technicians. AirPro Diagnostic technicians properly diagnose and deliver a report back to the shop on what DTC’s are present and what calibrations may be required to safely repair the vehicle,’ stated advisory council member Gene Lopez, Seidner’s Collision Centers, Director of Development and Training.
