ASA Tire Systems Preps Software Tyre Registration

ASA Tire Systems has upgraded its TreadX dealer software to capture tyre registration data at the store level and electronically transmit the information. The software maker said it made the modification in anticipation that the NHTSA will change tyre registration regulations and allow the electronic registration of tyres by tire dealers. TreadX now interfaces with tyre registration firm CIMS, allowing dealers to collect and enter tyre DOT numbers and owner information and transmit the data directly to CIMS for processing.

“By capturing the registration information at point-of-sale and electronically sending this data to CIMS, a dealer can provide a great service for its customers,” said Wayne Croswell, president of ASA Tire Systems. “In the end, more tyres will be registered, and if recalls are necessary, consumers will be served better. This new feature of TreadX continues to allow our users to improve their operations and the service they provide to their customers.” (Tire Review/Akron)
