GM rewrote its collision position statements to explicitly ban salvaged and aftermarket ADAS sensors. The language now reads 'strictly prohibits' instead of softer guidance. This closes the door on common workarounds and sets a hard line for your estimators and part sourcing.
Mark says: Update your GM parts specs to OEM sensors only. Brief your parts guy today so Friday's estimates don't trigger supplement denials.

A federal investigation into deadly counterfeit airbags signals a broader supply chain threat. Shops sourcing parts outside OEM channels are at legal and safety risk. One bad part can end a driver's life and expose your shop to liability. Buy from verified sources only.
Mark says: Vet every airbag supplier in writing. One counterfeit part wipes out years of reputation and opens you to criminal exposure.
