The identification and use of the proper procedures required to repair the wide variety of steels, aluminum, plastics, steering and suspension systems, electronics, hybrids, occupant protection, and other vehicle systems being used has never been as critical as it is today.

Access to this information needs to be available to not only the technician performing collision repairs, but must also be available at the time the estimate is being prepared to ensure that the proper repair or replace decisions are being made, and that any specialty tools, equipment or materials that are needed are identified before repairs begin. ALLDATA Collision provides the collision industry with a single source for the procedures they need."
