Most customers are familiar with the ASE label but are unsure of what this means when performing repairs. ASE stands for National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence. Founded in 1972, the ASE is dedicated to improving the all-around quality of vehicle repair and services for mechanics across the USA. The ASE offers a series of exams to help set and continually raise the standards for mechanical repairs. Finding a good mechanic is harder than ever for a car owner, and getting your car fixed isn't as simple or straightforward as it used to be. Advances in technology make cars and trucks more complex to repair than ever before and the diagnostics are also more in depth with frequent changes. Most vehicles are equipped to connect with our smartphones to entertain us and make it easier than ever to navigate the world. While these conveniences are welcome, it's also making it harder than ever to make sure your car is fixed properly.
To become an ASE certified mechanic, you must complete 2 years of hands-on work as a technician in the field of your choosing, which must be done in combination with taking a certification exam. The ASE tests aren't easy and the information is constantly changing; in fact only 2 of every 3 students pass on their first attempt. The remain ASE certified, technicians must retake the test every 5 years to keep up with the changing technology.
