SUN® Collision Repair Information helps automotive collision repair facilities work efficiently with complete information available in a single resource. OEM collision and mechanical repair information are delivered together from a single login —for all types of repairs, collision or mechanical. As vehicle technology advances, the line between collision and mechanical repair work is blurring. When a collision occurs, any damage to the body and frame is very likely to also damage sensors, cameras and other mechanical components that must be repaired to return the vehicle to safe operating condition. SUN Collision provides a comprehensive collision repair information system with accurate search functionality and an easy-to-use graphical format.
