Advance Professional Driven by Carquest announced recently the launch of a mobile VIN scan app designed to simplify business for its commercial customers. The Advance Professional VIN Scanner, available for iOS or Android devices, captures a vehicle’s detailed description when scanning a VIN barcode and seamlessly uploads the decoded information into a shop’s secure Advance Professional online account.

Existing Advance Professional commercial customers log in to the app using their Advance Professional online account credentials.
