Fix Auto USA announced the addition of its first franchise locations in Idaho: Fix Auto Coeur d’Alene and Fix Auto Post Falls, both locally owned and operated by franchise partner David Tuttle.

In addition to Idaho, Fix Auto USA operates in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Nevada, Oregon and Washington.

“Entering Idaho represents an exciting new frontier for our brand and the Fix Auto USA family,” said Fix Auto USA President and CEO Paul Gange. “More importantly, it is indicative that our proven model continues to be highly sought after and openly accepted by more and more operators looking to align themselves with a widely recognized and successful collision repair brand. We’re very pleased to expand into Idaho with David and his locations. David and his team have a superior reputation for providing market-leading service and impeccable quality. On behalf of the entire Fix Auto USA family, we welcome David and look forward to his ongoing success, and our continued expansion in the Idaho and surrounding markets.”

Tuttle added: “The industry isn’t what it used to be and, therefore, has become exponentially more challenging for independents to compete on their own. I knew joining Fix Auto USA was the right choice for me after researching many options and visiting their San Diego headquarters. Seeing their sophisticated operation and meeting the people that push the brand forward to create new opportunities for my businesses was overwhelmingly positive and impressive.”
