Critical shortage of qualified automotive technicians causing extended vehicle repair wait times and lost revenue for shops

Auto repair shops and dealerships across America cannot find enough skilled technicians to meet demand, resulting in weeks-long wait times for customers, lost business opportunities, and increased labor costs. Current vocational training pipelines and apprenticeship programs fail to attract and retain talent, leaving shops unable to service vehicles and customers unable to get repairs completed in reasonable timeframes.
