Raise the rate on every warranty hour.
A dealer warranty labor rate increase lifts what the factory pays for each hour your technicians bill on warranty work. It is one of the fastest ways to improve fixed-ops profit.
Your labor rate drives warranty profitability.
Dealership labor rates for warranty repairs have a direct effect on profit. When the factory pays below your retail rate, every warranty hour costs you money.
Our specialists build the case for a higher rate from your own repair orders, so your store can deliver top service without hurting its bottom line.
- Built from your own repair orders
- A higher rate on every warranty hour
- Specialists who know each state's law
- A low flat fee, never a percentage

Your new warranty labor rate goes into effect.
Can I collect the same labor rate and parts markup on warranty as on customer pay?
Yes. It is the law in nearly every state, yet many dealers have not taken advantage of it.
Will the factory audit me if I apply?
Most state laws are written to protect dealers from punitive factory audits. In 30+ years, no client has been audited because of a rate increase.
Why hire a consultant instead of doing it myself?
The factory has legal experts dedicated to keeping your rate low. Ask whether you have the experience, the time, detailed knowledge of the law, and the tools to get every dollar.
What does it cost?
A low, flat fee. We never take a percentage of your increase.
How long does it take?
Most states give the factory 30 days to review your claim once it is submitted. We handle every step before and after.
