Understanding When & Why OEMs Mandate Post-Repair Calibrations of ADAS Technology

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are evolving rapidly. Thanks to updates that can be wirelessly pushed from OEMs to vehicles overnight, required ADAS calibrations can literally change daily. But there are foundational rules that OEMs follow when determining the need for calibration, and we analyze them here.

Ramifications of Incomplete or Incorrectly Performed ADAS Calibrations

In this analysis of a case study from American Honda Motor Co., we look at what factors could lead to a calibration procedure “completing” —without errors—but still being incorrectly performed, leading to ADAS malfunction. Caliber also suggests steps the collision repair and auto insurance carriers can take to help prevent these scenarios.

Up to 60% of Collision Repairs to Have Mandated ADAS Calibrations in 2025

In Caliber's 2024 Q3 whitepaper, we analyze the projected need for ADAS calibration in collision repair, by repair year from 2024 – 2031. We also look at how repair mix will create variations at the shop level, the methodology behind our projections and the validation process, and we provide an industry-wide call to action.
