Allstate offers auto repair, maintenance service
PRNewswire
NORTHBROOK - Allstate Corp. announced it has teamed up with Openbay, an online marketplace for non-collision auto-repair and maintenance services, to help consumers with a faster and more efficient way to service their
vehicles.
The service is now available via Allstate.com, the Allstate Mobile app's 'My Rides' section, and the Drivewise app. Consumers have access to a national network of service centers, including dealerships participating in the Allstate Dealer Agency program, to schedule anything from an engine overhaul, to a new set of tires, to an oil change.
Allstate provides value at every stage of vehicle ownership, from purchasing the vehicle to insuring it. Now together with Openbay, Allstate is offering the information consumers need to make vehicle repair and maintenance decisions by providing multiple quotes from local service centers, including dealerships, and information to make their selection based on distance, customer reviews, pricing, and warranties. Openbay also maintains digital service records for future access and sends customers reminders of manufacturer-recommended service intervals.
"Well maintained vehicles make the road safer for everyone. Consumers consistently indicate that identifying a quality auto-repair facility is a major pain point, which may serve as a deterrent to regular maintenance and repairs. Integrating with Openbay enables Allstate to ease the burden of comparing and booking vehicle service," said Gary Hallgren, Allstate Connected Car President. "This is another example of services we're delivering that go beyond what people might expect to receive from an insurance company. Through our mobile apps, customers can also access helpful resources such as information on vehicle recalls, where to find low gas prices in the area and parking reminders."
The Allstate Mobile app and Drivewise apps are available for free download in the iTunes App Store or Google Play. For more information about all of the company's available mobile tools, visit: www.allstate.com/mobile.
