“The automotive industry is adopting technology at a rapid rate.
As vehicles become increasingly digitized and repairs more complex,
service technology available to the professionals servicing these
vehicles has not,” said Bob Cushing, Executive Vice President,
Professional at Advance. “Advance has addressed this growing
technology gap faced by automotive repair shops by investing in
rebuilding a technology solution from the ground up to provide
technicians easy access to quality OEM repair information in an
easy-to-use interface that’s built for today’s service
professionals. The key insights provided by professional
technicians enrolled in our best in class training platforms,
Carquest Technical Institute and the Worldpac Training Institute,
have enabled Advance to build an industry-leading repair and
diagnostic tool with MotoLogic.”
Unlike other aftermarket repair and diagnostic tools, MotoLogic
offers users the flexibility to search for information by keyword,
through the traditional OEM table of contents, or through an
expanded set of vehicle subsystem menus, returning fast and
relevant results. The latest enhancements include:
- New mobile-friendly look and feel that can be accessed from any
device with an internet connection.
- Newly added license plate lookup feature to quickly find
information on a specific vehicle, as well as access active and
historic recall information.
- Coverage of OEM information and maintains hyperlinks within
articles and wiring diagrams to give users one-click access to
additional information.
- Late-model repair and diagnostics data, with coverage for 2020
model year vehicles from many major manufacturers.
Supporting technicians is just one aspect to the new MotoLogic.
MotoVisuals, a proprietary database of more than 400 vehicle repair
animations, is designed to help foster trust between repair shops
and their customers. Now available to all existing and new
MotoLogic subscribers at no additional cost, MotoVisuals helps
professional shops educate their customers on services and repairs
needed with animations that illustrate vehicle systems from normal
to failure. Service Advisors can access these animations during the
service visit to help explain repair recommendations or can easily
share animations by email or text.
“We offer technicians a library of repair and diagnostic
information at their fingertips, covering 99 percent of the
vehicles on the road today,” said Matt Sampson, Director of
eServices Solutions at Advance. “Accurate, reliable, easy-to-find
information is a critical component of a technician’s ability to
get a customer back on the road quickly and with the right level of
care. With MotoLogic and MotoVisuals, we’re delivering quality
content backed by a technology infrastructure from Advance Auto
Parts that allows us to be first-to-market with key updates,
including late model information.”
MotoLogic is offered by Advance, Carquest U.S. and Canada, and
Autopart International. For more information related to MotoLogic
