What Happened To The I-CAR Advantage Articles?
I-CAR · October 6, 2022
Summary
This article explains that the legacy I-CAR Advantage Online Articles Archive Request Form and its associated articles have been discontinued. Much of the validated historical content has been migrated to the Collision Repair News page, and current technical inquiries should now be submitted via the 'Ask I-CAR' feature on the RTS portal.
What to do on the job
Use the 'Ask I-CAR' feature on the RTS portal instead of searching for legacy Advantage articles when researching historical repair guidelines.
How to use it
Use this document to explain to insurers or estimators why older I-CAR Advantage articles can no longer be retrieved or cited via the legacy archive form, and to justify utilizing current RTS portal resources or active 'Ask I-CAR' inquiries for validated repair procedures.
