AAIA has commissioned Lang Marketing to conduct a comprehensive study: Vehicle Repair Cost Analysis: New Car Dealerships vs. Independent Repair Shops in which specific vehicle repair and parts costs are compared amongst the two locations. The findings reveal significant differences in repair costs between new car dealers and independent repair shops, reinforcing the long-standing contention that independent repair shops are less costly and more convenient than new car dealers.
