THE ATRA CODE OF ETHICS AND MEMBER
PLEDGE
for Rebuilder Members of the
Automatic Transmission Rebuilders Association
As members of ATRA, we pledge to ourselves and
to each other to diagnose transmission problems for customers
and for each other in an expert and honest manner, and to
state that the removal of a transmission from a vehicle in
correction of its problems is necessary, only when this is
the case.
• We further pledge to provide prompt
and courteous in-car diagnosis on behalf of customers of other
member shops free of charge (Members may assess a charge up
to one (1) hour of diagnostic time for electronic testing
and scanning based on the current Golden Rule rate provided
the charge is agreed to in advance by the warranting Member).
• We further pledge to act with integrity,
and to speak at all times in a responsible manner, and in
all ways to adhere to the concept of the Golden Rule in our
dealings with the motoring public and with our competitors
of industry.
• We further pledge ourselves to the
promotion and improvement of the automatic transmission service
and repair industry through maintaining the highest standard
so for parts and workmanship quality at our places of business.
• We further pledge ourselves to the
continual training and retraining of ourselves and our employees,
in order to keep abreast of the constant changes in the state
of the art of our industry.
• We pledge to have ourselves and our
employees tested and certified on a continuing basis in such
a manner as will demonstrate the ATRA member shops are staffed
with capable personnel.
• We finally pledge that such transmission
assemblies as we represent to the consuming public and to
other members as “rebuild”, will have been re-processed
according to the Association Rebuilding Standards and Definitions
as outlined in these By-Laws.
