Toronto, Ontario — March 6, 2019 — Certified Collision Care, the Canadian division of Assured Performance Network, will administer and manage the Toyota Certified Collision Centre and Lexus Certified Collision Centre programs, Toyota Canada has announced.
“The programs will identify, certify, and promote dealership and independent facilities as collision repair providers of choice, to Toyota and Lexus drivers across Canada,” Toyota Canada wrote in a press release.
“Participation in the Toyota and Lexus Certified Collision Centre Programs will be limited in each market area, and dealer sponsorship will be a requirement. Existing Toyota and Lexus Certified Collision Centres will join the Certified Collision Care program to maintain their certifications.”
While facilities now certified by CCC and receive Toyota or Lexus Dealer sponsorship will be able to receive OEM-specific credentials without additional cost, they will only be able to receive the certification if they are within market areas that have not reached the regional limit, and must also meet some additional requirements.
“We are looking forward to working with Certified Collison Care to enhance our existing Certified Collision Program. Certified Collison Care existing resources will help us manage our certified collision network.” Leanne Jefferies, VP, Canadian Operations, Assured Performance Certified Collision Care commented, “We are very excited to partner with Toyota and Lexus to manage the certification programs, and to add the Toyota and Lexus Certified Collision Centre programs to our Certified shop’s credentials.”
CCC also administers certification programs for Fiat Chrysler, Ford, Kia and Nissan in Canada.
