The Future of Autobody Repair for the Next Generation of Vehicles

The autobody shop of today has had to evolve with the rapid advancements of the car industry. Computerization introduced a host of new disciplines that autobody technicians need to master. 

From relatively straightforward knowledge of the car’s structural systems, the modern autobody shop has had to become a sophisticated electrical, technological and mechanical centre, certified to repair very complex vehicles and restore cars to their pre-collision state. This ever-changing environment means that autobody shops have to be certified in electrical systems, and new safety systems in the ever-growing Electric Vehicle segment.

 Numerous auto manufacturers and technology firms are racing to be the first to market a self-driving car. With rapid technological advancements in the automotive industry comes a continued to push demand for greater collision repair skills. When these new cars are involved in an accident, making the right choice for the collision repair becomes a critical decision for the consumer.

 If you own a recent model automobile that needs collision repair, look for a facility that has invested in specific learning that is certified by the car companies.  Mitek technicians undergo continued education to keep up with the new technologies. Hands-on exposure to the many new software and electrical components as well as structural advances is part of our commitment to being the leader in autobody repair in our trade area.
