FAQ

There are a number of frequently asked questions that JY Collision Center took notice of. We’ve detailed them below in order to educate you on some of the basics before you request a repair.

Can a body shop be certified with I-CAR or ASE?

No. Both I-CAR and ASE are separate certifications, meaning that a technician should not just have one of these two certifications. If the collision center you’re choosing has technicians that are only certified in one, possibly reconsider taking your vehicle elsewhere.

What certification should I look out for when choosing a technician?

When searching for a certified technician, you’ll want to find someone with I-CAR. ASE, and PPG certifications. This covers all the bases for the potential repairs you require on your vehicle.

Can any technician or body shop work on aluminum?

No. Aluminum is completely different from steel and must be treated differently. If not repaired in a separate aluminum center, corrosion could start to damage the bodywork. The technicians at JY Collision Center are trained and certified to use the aluminum specific tools to perfectly accomplish your repair.
