DataScan providing Subaru of America with certified pre-owned compliance inspections

DataScan Field Services (DataScan), one of the largest floorplan verification and vehicle inspection companies in the automotive industry, has joined with Subaru of America, Inc. to provide compliance inspections for its Subaru Certified Pre-Owned (SCPO) program.

Beginning in January 2010, DataScan Field Representatives will work with participating Subaru dealers throughout the United States on SCPO program standards relating to vehicle eligibility, 152-point inspections (and associated reconditioning), vehicle history report availability and other best practices.

“What sets us apart is our approach – we consult and work one-on-one with the dealerships to help them remain compliant,” says Richard Carpentier, DataScan’s Managing Director. “After each inspection, our representatives sit down with the dealer’s management team and offer constructive feedback, resources and recommendations.”

DataScan has provided compliance and certified pre-owned vehicle inspections for Subaru in Canada since 2007. The company currently works with Subaru of America in many inspection capacities including end-of-lease, company demos, employee lease, promotional and consumer guaranteed trade-ins. Additionally, DataScan supplies Subaru of America with wholesale floorplan systems and floorplan verification.

Subaru of America has 600 dealers in the United States and eighty percent participate in SCPO. Year-to-date, the program has increased sixty percent in an overall declining market.
