GENERAL INFORMATION

A/C-Heater System Motorist Assurance Program

Standards For Automotive Repair

All Makes and Models

INTRODUCTION TO MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM (MAP)

The Motorist Assurance Program was formed in 1992 by forty

(40) companies who were concerned about the image of automotive

service establishments. Today, MAP is an industry-wide association

dedicated to strengthening consumer satisfaction with the automotive

repair industry. MAP's participants represent the majority of the

nation's multi-bay retail automotive outlets, their parts and

equipment suppliers, independent repair shops, industry associations,

car companies, manufacturers representatives, and the trade press. MAP

is developing standards of service, uniform inspection procedures

and other programs to assure consumers of the industry's

professionalism and the commitment to excellence shared by MAP's

sponsoring companies.

MAP's achievements to date include production and

distribution (over 280,000) of the consumer brochure "How to Find Your

Way Under the Hood and Around Your Car", development of a Pledge of

Satisfaction to Consumers and Standards of Service and establishment

of relationships with regulatory agencies.

As auto repair becomes an issue for federal and state

regulators, MAP is working to educate government leaders on the

dynamics of automotive service and the self-monitoring efforts MAP has

undertaken on the industry's behalf. MAP's sponsoring companies are

becoming well-known to government representatives as exemplary

businesses working to improve the industry. Media sources also look to

MAP to provide information and advice to consumers and on working with

automotive technicians and repair establishments.

In the next few months, MAP plans to assist member repair

facilities in implementing the MAP Pledge to Customers, establishing

an alternate dispute resolution system to help resolve customer

complaints within the industry, and developing a shop accreditation

program to encourage policies in concert with the MAP Standards of

Service and Inspection Guidelines.

MAP has united the aftermarket behind its consumer-oriented

goals and has established itself both within and outside of the

industry. We welcome you to join us as MAP continues its outreach.

With your support, both the automotive repair industry and your

customers will reap the benefits. Please contact MAP at:

MAP UNIFORM INSPECTION GENERAL GUIDELINES

OVERVIEW OF SERVICE REQUIREMENTS & SUGGESTIONS

It is MAP policy that all exhaust, brake, ABS, steering and

suspension, wheel alignment, tires and wheels, driveline, engine

performance and maintenance and heating, ventilation and air

conditioning services be offered and performed under the guidelines

and procedures specified in these sections.

Before any service is performed on a vehicle, an inspection

of the appropriate system must be performed. The results of this

inspection must be explained to the customer and documented on an

inspection form. The condition of the vehicle and its components will

indicate what services/part replacements may be required or suggested.

In addition, suggestions may be made to satisfy the needs expressed by

the customer.

This section lists the various parts and conditions that

indicate required or suggested service or part replacement. Although

this list is extensive, it is not inclusive. In addition to this list,

a technician may make a suggestion. This suggestion must be based on

substantial and informed experience or the vehicle manufacturer's

recommended service interval.

Some conditions indicate that service or part replacement is

required because the part in question is no longer providing the

function for which it is intended, does not meet a vehicle

manufacturer's design specification or is missing.

* Example: An exhaust pipe has corroded severely and has a hole

in it through which exhaust gases are leaking. Replacement of

the exhaust pipe in this case is required due to functional

failure.

* Example: A brake rotor has been worn to the point where it

measures less than the vehicle manufacturer's specifications.

Replacement of the rotor is required because it does not meet

design specifications.

Some conditions indicate that a service or part replacement

is suggested because the part is close to the end of its useful life

or to address a customer's need, convenience or request. If a

customer's vehicle has one of these conditions, the procedure may only

be to suggest service.

* Example: An exhaust pipe is rusted, corroded or weak, but no

leaks are present. In this case, the exhaust pipe has not

failed. However, there is evidence that the pipe may need

replacement in the near future. Replacement of the pipe may

be suggested for the customer's convenience in avoiding a

future problem.

* Example: The customer desires improved ride and/or handling,

but the vehicle's shocks or struts have not failed. In this

case, replacement may be suggested to satisfy the customer's

wishes. In this case, replacement of the shocks or struts may

not be sold as a requirement.

A customer, of course, has the choice of whether or not a

Shop will service his or her vehicle. He or she may decide not to

follow some of your suggestions. The following reasons may be used for

required and suggested services:

Reasons to Require Repair or Replacement:

* component no longer performs intended purpose

* component does not meet a design specification (regardless of

performance)

* component is missing.

Reasons to Suggest Repair or Replacement

* component is close to the end of its useful life (just above

discard specifications or weak; failure likely to occur soon,

etc.)

* address a customer need, convenience or request (stiffen

ride, enhance performance, eliminate noise, etc.)

* comply with maintenance recommended by the vehicle's Original

Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)

* technician's recommendation based on substantial and informed

experience.

HEATING, VENTILATION & AIR CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *

NOTE: When servicing R-12 Systems it is suggested to use "O" rings,

seals and hose materials which are also compatible with

R-134a in case the vehicle requires retrofitting later

in its life.
