The Pulse: New Car Dealer Share of Repair Work by Vehicle Age

New car dealer share of all repair work slips as the vehicle parc ages.

In September, we looked at the new car dealers’ share of non-warranty vehicle repair work, based on data provided by IMR Research.

Today, we look at the new car dealer share of repair work by vehicle age, including both warranty and non-warranty work. As the chart here shows, new car dealer share of all repair work slips as the vehicle parc ages. This is a sweet spot for the aftermarket, as the number of vehicles on the road today that are 11 years and older is reported to have increased by 13 million units.
