BOLT ON TECHNOLOGY, one of the leaders in shop management technology for the automotive repair industry, has integrated its Mobile Manager Pro with Carfax QuickVIN. Users now can quickly retrieve the year/make/model and engine information of their customers’ vehicles simply by entering the license plate information. In addition, BOLT ON TECHNOLOGY has joined the Carfax Service Network, making it easy for repair shops to also join the network and take advantage of the Carfax QuickVIN feature.

The Carfax QuickVIN license decoding feature is one of shop owner Jose Gomez’s favorite parts of Mobile Manager Pro.

“We probably service 500 cars every month and that function alone easily saves us two hours of labor per week,” said Gomez, owner of Elsy Auto Repair in Newark, N.J. “The labor savings is real dollars that positively impacts our bottom line and customer service. It’s made our lives a lot easier and our business even better.”
