Advanced Driver Assist SystemsAdvanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS) are vehicle safety features to aid drivers and prevent accidents. Examples include systems for collision avoidance braking, blind spot awareness, adaptive headlamps, parking assistance, pedestrian detection, lane departure assistance, and adaptive cruise control.

ADAS use input from cameras, radars, and ultrasonic devices through sensors and computers to take control of vehicle components. These components include vehicle systems such as steering, braking, or engine throttle. ADAS can also send audible alerts and illuminate warning lights to the driver to prevent accidents.

Advancements in Vehicle Safety Technology

Most Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) require specific service specifications for ADAS to be followed after a collision. This can include pre-scans, post-scans, and calibration of the systems affected. ADAS service specifications ensure the vehicle’s cameras, radars, and ultrasonic devices are aligned and functioning as engineered for consumer safety.

2

Some service specifications require scans and recalibrations of certain repairs even without sustaining a collision, such as windshield replacement, vehicle wheel alignment, change in suspension, or even dismantling of certain auto body components.

ADAS recalibration can vary by vehicle manufacturer, make, and model. These variations can range from driving the vehicle under certain conditions or for specified periods of time to hanging mechanical targets to recalibrate the system, depending on the specific vehicle equipment.

In a recent interview with the Inter-Industry Conference of Auto Collision Repair (I-CAR), Jason Bartanen, Director of Industry Technical Relations, stated, “With the increase in ADAS on today’s vehicles, collision repair diagnostics is going to continue to play a growing role in complete, safe, quality repairs.” Bartanen also added, “In order for many of the advanced driver assist systems to function as designed following repair, calibration and aiming procedures are critical. A camera or sensor that is misaligned a few degrees may prevent one of these safety systems from functioning as designed.”

Some Automotive Repair Dealers (ARDs) are performing ADAS service internally, while others are subletting the service to outside vendors. In either case, ARDs are required to adhere to service specifications, accepted trade standards, and laws contained within the Automotive Repair Act and BAR regulations. Title 16, California Code of Regulations section 3365 (a) requires that:

Repair procedures including but not limited to the sectioning of component parts, shall be performed in accordance with OEM service specifications or nationally distributed and periodically updated service specifications that are generally accepted by the autobody repair industry.

Safety Recalls

Protecting and empowering consumers is a key tenet of both the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) and Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA). Both BAR and DCA believe strongly that safety recall compliance is critical to saving lives. As many are aware, an unprecedented vehicle safety recall campaign of Takata air bags has been initiated by 19 different vehicle manufacturers. This safety recall campaign is because of a safety defect that may cause the air bag inflator to explode and cause serious injury and/or death.

In an effort to inform and protect consumers while increasing vehicle safety recall compliance rates, BAR recently worked with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to help educate California consumers with high-risk vehicles. Our efforts resulted in the identification of 852 “Alpha” group vehicles, which are considered the vehicles in most need of repair, with an open Takata air bag recall. BAR successfully contacted the owners of over 500 “Alpha” group vehicles, notifying them of the recall and safety risks associated with continued operation of the vehicle with a potentially defective airbag.

BAR is committed to continue to work with all stakeholders to find ways to protect consumers by increasing vehicle safety recall compliance. Additionally, we believe the automotive repair industry is ideally positioned to support this objective and has a real opportunity to help save lives by informing and educating consumers. Several resources exist that can help consumers determine if their vehicle does in fact have an open safety recall. Through NHTSA’s website at www.nhtsa.gov/recalls, consumers can enter their17-digitVehicleIdentificationNumber(VIN)andquickly determine if their vehicle is subject to a safety recall. It is important to provide these resources to your customers and let them know these repairs will be performed by the manufacturer at no cost. For more information, visit BAR’s website at www.bar.ca.gov/Consumer/Safety_Recalls.html.

Sunset ReviewThe Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) typically undergoes a Sunset Review process every four years. This provides an opportunity for BAR, the Department of Consumer Affairs, the Legislature, stakeholders, and interested parties to discuss BAR’s operations and make recommendations for improvement. To assist in the review, BAR recently submitted its Sunset Review report to the Senate Committee on Business, Professions, and Economic Development and the Assembly Committee on Business and Professions. The report provides information about BAR, its licensees, and how BAR performs its regulatory functions. The report is available on BAR’s website at www.bar.ca.gov. BAR is scheduled to participate in legislative hearings on the report early next year.

BAR-97 EIS UpdateBAR anticipates the adoption of regulations requiring compliance with the new BAR-97 Emissions Inspection System (EIS) specification in summer 2018. The proposed regulation removes current requirements for the transfer of data from BAR-97 Smog Check equipmenttoBAR’sVehicleIdentificationDatabase(VID)throughtraditionalanalogphonelinesandreplaces them with requirements for the transfer of data through a standard Internet connection. Two EIS equipment manufacturers (Snap-on and SPX) have informed BAR that they will not be participating in the update. Stations that use Snap-on and SPX BAR-97analyzersmayneedtopurchasenewequipmentto comply with the new Smog Check Program requirements.

However, both OPUS and Worldwide Environmental Products (WEP) have informed BAR that they plan to continue providing EIS equipment to the Smog Check industry. While nothing is yet certified to meet the new specification, both companies have submitted updated equipment to BAR to begin the certification process in anticipation of the regulations being adopted. These next-generation EIS units are upgrades of existing EIS units already being used by Smog Check stations to test 1999 and older model-year vehicles.

EIS upgrades will be split into two stages. The first stage will convert EIS communications from a phone line and modem (i.e., dial-up) to Internet protocol (IP). Thelaterupdatewillmodernizeend-of-lifeEISunitswith changes such as requiring a Windows operating system, converting to a new and more reliable gas bench, and updating the data record layout. BAR has been working with EIS manufacturers to test and certify new operating systems, gas benches, sample hoses, and other items to ensure reliable EIS equipment is available to support the California Smog Check Program.

Although the exact date that support for dial-up EIS connectivity will be terminated is unknown, BAR strongly suggests that Smog Check stations obtain an Internet-capable EIS as soon as possible to ensure business continuity through this transition. BAR will notify Smog Check stations of any developments as they occur. The current status of all EIS certifications can be found on BAR’s website at www.bar.ca.gov/Industry/Equipment/BAR97_Certified_Test_Systems.html.

REGULATIONS

Mobile Automotive Repair Dealer Advertising

BAR recently adopted regulations concerning advertising requirements for Automotive Repair Dealers (ARDs) who perform mobile repairs. ARDs whose business model relies primarily on mobile repair typically advertise on the Internet and are more difficult to monitor than other repair dealers since they do not operate out of a registered business address. The new regulation was developed in response to and in collaboration with the automotive industry to address this issue. Not only will the regulation assist BAR in combating unlicensed activity, but it also will help consumerswithverificationofamobileARD's license status.

Electronic Documentation and Authorization

BAR has developed proposed regulations that would allowforelectronicestimatesandauthorizationstobeused in transactions between ARDs and consumers. The proposed regulations also clarify current language andreorganizeestimate,workorder,andinvoiceprovisions to more closely align with automotive repair transactions.

A public hearing was held on September 26, 2017. After reviewing comments submitted during the 45-day public comment period, BAR issued a 15-day Notice for Public Comment on revisions to the regulation text on November 3, 2017. A second 15-day Notice for Public Comment was issued on December 4, 2017. A Final Statement of Reasons, which will include responses to all comments received during the public comment periods, will be published upon filing with the Secretary of State. Adoption is expected in Spring 2018.

Automotive Repair Dealers (ARDs) engaged in the retail sale of replacement lead-acid batteries are now required to charge consumers a $1 fee when a battery is purchased. The Lead-Acid Battery Recycling Act of 2016 was enacted by Assembly Bill2153(Garcia,Chapter666,Statutesof2016).Beginning April 1, 2017, this law requires the collection of two new fees. Battery manufacturers now pay a $1 fee for every retail sale of a lead-acid battery directly to consumers, or any sale made to a dealer, wholesaler, distributor, or other third-party retailer of the battery. In addition, a $1 fee is charged to the consumer for each purchase of a replacement lead-acid battery from a dealer, including purchases directly from the battery manufacturer.

ARDs who sell replacement lead-acid batteries must collect the fee and remit it to the California

Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA). ARDs must list the fee as a separate line-item on all invoices. The fee is not subject to sales tax and 1.5 percent of the fee (15 cents) may be retained by the ARD as reimbursement for collection of the fee. Beginning April 1, 2022, the fee is scheduled to increase to $2.

A refundable deposit must also be charged by the ARD and separately stated on the invoice when a consumer purchases a replacement lead-acid battery and does not exchange the used battery at the time of purchase. The deposit is not subject to sales tax if the transaction is taxable and is refunded if the battery is returned within 45 days.

For more information and to register with CDTFA for quarterly reporting of collected fees, visit www.boe.ca.gov/industry/lead-acid_battery_fees.html.
