Josh McFarlin, Director of Curriculum & Product Development for I-CAR explained, “Lightweight vehicle materials like aluminum and high-strength steel are driving major changes in vehicle construction. For repairers, this can mean major changes to the collision repair process. Understanding these changes before vehicles enter the shop contributes to right first time repairs and associated efficiency gains.”
