The Independent Automotive Aftermarket Federation

IAAF Activity Report w/e 1 October 2021

Date: Friday 01 October 2021

A summary of some of the activities undertaken by the IAAF Secretariat on behalf of the membership and the wider aftermarket during the week just gone by.

Fuel shortages
The IAAF has sought information from members on whether the current fuel shortages has affected business. The IAAF continues to liaise with government departments. Please continue to let us know any issues you are facing.

Block Exemption
IAAF will be campaigning for a modernised motor vehicle block exemption regulation to take into account the complexities and digital nature of modern vehicles. The biggest issue with the current legislation is one of enforcement. We are collecting more evidence of where independent operators have been hampered from servicing and repairing vehicles under warranty. The Your Car Your Choice campaign proved that the aftermarket can gain business from being armed with the information on BER.

Don't forget to book for the industry briefing session
The much-anticipated event is taking place at Autotech’s Academy in Milton Keynes on Tuesday 12th October at 10am, with attendees then having the opportunity to network over lunch. Please contact anns@iaaf.co.uk to add your name to the list to attend either in person or virtually via the livestream.
