United States. Hunter Engineering announced that its newly updated vehicle information database is now available to Hunter WinAlign users.
According to the company, the release covers new models, those that didn't already exist at the time of the previous launch last spring, as well as model-year updates, which cover OEM changes to existing vehicles.
With nearly half of all vehicles on the road currently misaligned, keeping up with alignment specifications is critical, Hunter advised. Wheel alignments are among the highest-margin services that repair shops can perform.
There are new specifications for more than 300 new models and more than 660 for existing models. All versions of a particular model are included in the update, which encompasses hundreds of additional vehicles, according to Hunter.
Also included are more than 450 new or updated CodeLink apps.
The release incorporates updates to other WinAlign features, such as the tool and kit database, TPMSpecs database and reset procedures, VIN recovery support, tuning assistance, security system alignment procedures, and more, in addition to equipment connectivity to the HunterNet customer portal.
