INTRODUCTION TO MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM (MAP)
OVERVIEW OF MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM
The Motorist Assurance Program is the consumer outreach
effort of the Automotive Maintenance and Repair Association, Inc.
(AMRA). Participation in the Motorist Assurance Program is drawn from
retailers, suppliers, independent repair facilities, vehicle
manufacturers and industry associations.
Our organization's mission is to strengthen the relationship
between the consumer and the auto repair industry. We produce
materials that give motorists the information and encouragement to
take greater responsibility for their vehicles-through proper,
manufacturer-recommended, maintenance. We encourage participating
service and repair shops (including franchisees and dealers) to adopt:\
1) a Pledge of Assurance to their Customers and
2) the Motorist Assurance Program Standards of Service.
All participating service providers have agreed to subscribe
to this Pledge and to adhere to the promulgated Standards of Service
demonstrating to their customers that they are serious about customer
satisfaction.
These Standards of Service require that an inspection of the
vehicle's (problem) system be made and the results communicated to the\
customer according to industry standards. Given that the industry did
not have such standards, the Motorist Assurance Program successfully
promulgated industry inspection communication standards in 1994-95 for
the following systems: Exhaust, Brakes, ABS, Steering and Suspension,
Engine Maintenance and Performance, HVAC, and Electrical Systems.
Further, revisions to all of these inspection communication standards
are continually re-published. In addition to these, standards for
Drive Train and Transmissions have recently been promulgated.
Participating shops utilize these Uniform Inspection & Communication
Standards as part of the inspection process and for communicating
their findings to their customers.
The Motorist Assurance Program continues to work
cooperatively and proactively with government agencies and consumer
groups toward solutions that both benefit the customer and are
mutually acceptable to both regulators and industry. We maintain the
belief that industry must retain control over how we conduct our
business, and we must be viewed as part of the solution and not part
of the problem. Meetings with state and other government officials
(and their representatives), concerned with auto repair and/or
consumer protection, are conducted. Feedback from these sessions is
brought back to the association, and the program adjusted as needed.
To assure auto repair customers recourse if they were not

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEMS
NOTE: Anti-lock brakes are an integral part of the brake system. It
is essential that the anti-lock brakes function properly when
brake service is performed.
Anti-lock brake systems are commonly referred to as "ABS" and
will be referred to as "ABS" throughout these guidelines. Some ABS
components also function as part of a traction control system (TCS).
WARNING: When diagnosing and servicing high pressure components,
observe safety procedures and equipment requirements
established by the vehicle manufacturer to reduce the
possibility of serious personal injury.
NOTE: Intermittent electrical conditions are often caused by a loss
of ground, poor connection, or water intrusion into the
wiring harness.
Page 189 of 1501
NOTE: Electro-magnetic interference (EMI) may be caused by
incorrect installation of accessories or components. EMI can
result in improper system operation.
