Only a small percentage (around 1.5%) of all repair shops meet the AAA standards and become an Approved Auto Repair Shop. It’s a process that requires transparency and honesty while seeking AAA approval.  The process goes like this:

• AAA Performs Surveys:  Upon initial application, AAA representatives make a personal visit to the shop and survey the business.  They poll customers about their satisfaction with the service received, and a shop must score a 94% satisfaction rating or higher.
• AAA Tours Repair Facility:  The representatives ensure proper, modern equipment is present.  They check the overall condition and state of the facility.
• AAA Interviews the Repair Techs: AAA ensures that the repair technicians are ASE Certified in every repair area that the repair facility performs.  The ASE Certifications show that the shop’s mechanics are highly skilled.  AAA also checks to ensure that there are Master Technicians on staff.  A Master Technician is someone who is certified in every area of the ASE Certification scope.
• AAA Checks the Shop’s Credibility:  AAA checks to ensure the shop carries the proper liability insurance, and perform checks to ensure the business is ethical, credible, and trustworthy.

Verdict:  On-site checks and customer polling along says a lot.  This is no mail-order certification!  There is quite a bit that goes into the AAA certification.
