CRYSTAL LAKE, IL – A new white paper from Automotive Compliance Consultants offers auto dealers guidelines on how to better avoid costly warranty claims errors and maximize claims payments.

“Manufacturers are increasingly cost conscious when it comes to warranty repairs and are eyeing claims with increasing scrutiny. Prevention here includes pre-emptive warranty audits that help identify and then correct potential problems before the factory’s auditors do,” notes Terry Dortch, president of Automotive Compliance Consultants, Crystal Lake, IL.

An internal audit of your warranty claims can help verify the integrity of the dealership’s warranty processes or where costly problems might be occurring. A poorly managed and maintained warranty process can result in factory audit chargebacks of $100,000 and up. Unpaid claims, whatever the reason, cost the dealership money – money owed to it by the factory.

Tips for improving the warranty claim process are now available in a downloadable report, Maximize Warranty Claims and Avoid Costly Warranty Mistakes. Click here to download.

This report will help your dealership identify warranty audit red flags, catch potential claim losses early, uncover root audit and claim loss problems and what documents to audit internally to ensure compliance.
