SOUTHFIELD, Mich. – Polk is now supplying Federal-Mogul Corp. with vehicle ownership and operation information in support of its product and inventory management efforts around the world. 
      
“Our ability to provide customers with a complete range of import and domestic product coverage – no matter where the distributor is located around the world – is a major strength provided by Federal-Mogul,” said Jay Burkhart, senior vice president, Global Aftermarket, Federal-Mogul. “We feel Polk can provide valuable solutions in support of that effort.”
