Posted on 12 January 2023 | Share: | Print Print

As 2023 rolls in, we can reflect back on what the previous year had to offer. Let's take a look at some of the collision industry information you've been most interested in from this past year. These are the most popular articles from 2022.

The most popular article titled Pre- and Post-Repair System Scanning Position Statements was published in January of 2019 and made our top 20 list this year and previous years. This article is a compiled list of I-CAR's Repairability Technical Support (RTS) articles that highlight OEMs that have a pre- and post-repair system scanning position statement, and how to find them.

You will also notice that advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and calibration continue to remain a popular topic, especially the ADAS, Calibration, And Scanning Article Hotspot.
