The world is currently in it’s digital era as everything around us becomes digitized. TV’s were unheard of 100 years ago and now are capable of Apple CarPlay. Our CD’s and VCR’s have been replaced by our phones, and every aspect of the vehicle is evolving. From it’s internal computer system to it’s external, everything is changing rapidly.
It is important to keep up with the changes and ride the wave. This is the best way to optimize your vehicle’s care and your own convenience. In the heart of Stettler, Alberta, Auto Trust stands as a beacon for cutting-edge vehicle care. One of the key services propelling us into the forefront of modern auto maintenance is our Digital Vehicle Inspections (DVI).
By integrating digital inspections into our repertoire, we’ve redefined the traditional vehicle inspection process. The process has become more transparent, comprehensive, and user-friendly.
Traditionally, vehicle inspections at auto repair shops were manual, paper-based processes. This often led to vague descriptions of vehicle issues, ambiguities in the diagnosis, and a lack of visual proof for customers. The customer just had to trust the mechanic’s words, which sometimes were deceitful.
However, with the advent of digital vehicle inspection software, the entire landscape of vehicle diagnostics has transformed. The ability to integrate inspection templates, utilize digital inspection checklists, and generate real-time inspection reports has paved the way for a more transparent and efficient inspection process. No more struggling to read the messy writing of a mechanic or asking for further clarification. Everything is right in front of your eyes.
At Auto Trust in Stettler, AB, we pride ourselves on leveraging the latest digital vehicle inspection software to it’s full potential. Here are the pivotal components of our process:
Mobile Device Integration: Our technicians perform inspections using mobile devices. This ensures real-time data capture, visual proof, and flexibility.
Inspection Templates & Checklists: Standardized digital inspection templates ensure a thorough multi-point inspection of vehicles. This includes every component from the electrical system to the engine and so on.
Photos and Video Integration: For every identified issue, pictures and videos are taken to provide clear visual evidence. This not only helps in documenting the exact condition of the part but also aids in customer understanding.
Real-Time Reports: As soon as the inspection is complete, digital inspection reports are generated, which can be instantly shared with customers. These can also be stored for recordkeeping to better understand the vehicle in future services.
If you weren’t already convinced to conduct a DVI for your vehicle, here are some more of it’s benefits. DVI comes with a slew of advantages including:
Transparency: With the inclusion of photos and video, customers can see firsthand the state of their vehicle and the necessity of recommended repairs.
Efficiency: Digital checklists and templates ensure that no aspect of the vehicle is overlooked.
Precision: Digital records are far more accurate than handwritten notes, minimizing human errors.
Improved Customer Service: Real-time reports mean faster turnaround times and enhanced communication, elevating the overall customer service experience.
One of the standout benefits of DVI is the clarity it brings to customers. Traditional reports often used technical jargon, making them hard for the average person to decipher. Digital inspection reports, complemented by photos and videos, offer an easy-to-understand breakdown of vehicle issues.
This visual evidence not only educates customers about their vehicle’s condition but also helps build trust. When customers can visually validate the issues, it leads to higher acceptance rates of average repair orders.
Beyond the operational benefits, there’s a significant environmental advantage to DVIs. Transitioning from paper-based inspections to DVIs means less paper waste. Auto Trust’s commitment to going paperless showcases our dedication to sustainability and eco-friendly practices.
Every digital inspection contributes to reduced deforestation and decreased pollution from paper manufacturing. This represents a significant cut-down in the carbon footprint of our auto repair shop.
At Auto Trust, we’re not just an auto repair shop in Stettler, AB; we’re pioneers in modern vehicle care. We understand the evolving needs of our customers in today’s digital age and have tailored our services to exceed those expectations. Our DVI process, backed by advanced digital vehicle inspection software, promises transparency, efficiency, and unparalleled customer service.
For those in Stettler and surrounding areas, we invite you to experience the future of vehicle inspections. Schedule your next DVI with us and witness firsthand the thoroughness and transparency we bring to the table. With Auto Trust, you’re not just getting a service; you’re making an informed decision about your vehicle’s care with clarity and confidence.

My husband and I are fairly new to this area and I found AutoTrust through their fantastic Google reviews. After experiencing the friendliest customer service, honest advice and solid work myself - I can confirm the glowing reviews are well deserved.

I had such a great experience with Auto Trust in Stettler. I was booked in for Friday morning and they were able to diagnose and fix my car all in the same day, which was already amazing. What really stood out though was how they went above and beyond, the weather was bad and I had all my kids home, so they actually delivered my vehicle right to my door. That kind of service is rare.
Throughout the whole process they talked me through everything clearly and never made me feel pressured. They genuinely tried to find me the best deals on the parts needed and took the time to explain everything so thoroughly. Their kindness and patience made a stressful situation feel easy.
It truly has that special small town feel where you feel taken care of and not just like another customer. They make you feel at home and they get the job done right. I’m so grateful for their help and would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing honest, reliable service.
This is probably the most honest garage around. They are always fair with pricing. They support local business and staff and ownership are great.
Really knowledgeable, personable, and reasonably priced work! Wouldn’t go anywhere else in Stettler.

Drive up to Stettler from Calgary to check out this place. Fantastic customer service at AutoTrust special shout out to Tatiana for suggesting a zip tie as a temporary fix for the plastic guard on the hood. Brads the man and their values translate right through from booking - service - diagnosis - recommendations - follow up automatic emails & reminders. Highly recommend!
Great service, great people.

My car battery died this morning. Bought a new one at "Canada's Auto Store" only to be told they couldn't replace the old one for two days. I appealed to their common sense, but it had already left the building! Drove to AutoTrust, who had done great work for me last year, and they said, "No problem!" Turned out the battery I bought from that other place was NOT compatible with my car, so AutoTrust sourced a correct one and I was back on the road in just over three hours, lunch time included! Great job, folks. You are my go-to auto shop forever more!

Went to get an oil pan heater installed on my van. The staff were very informative, friendly and honest!! Turns out I have a block heater already in the vehicle.. they could have just installed the oil pan heater and charged me for it, but they didn't. They made sure everything worked and sent me on my way... Definitely take your vehicle here!! I will be taking all mine here from now on!! Thank you to the staff again!! You definitely made my day that day!!

Had a problem with my car an hour into my road trip home so I called 30km away, explained my issue and they told me to pull right up and they'd look for me. They took great care, explained everything I needed to know and assured my safe arrival home. Incredibly kind and helpful staff! Absolutely recommend!

AutoTrust has been the place where my family has always gotten our auto issues fixed. Super friendly and communicative team. I ask a lot of little questions and the receptionist always answers with joy. It’s not just a team but a family and that is shown through their work. They work till they find the issue. Their team is quick, proficient and always listening to your worries and concerns. They provide loaner vehicles which leaves no worries for how you’ll get from A to B whilst having work done. Highly recommend AutoTrust to anyone!

Brad and his staff are always very friendly, helpful and efficient in getting my vehicle needs taken care of. Whenever I have called, they have been able to get my vehicles in and repair them in a timely fashion, a few times under the original quote. I trust them to take care of with my vehicles in the same why I would personally. No new damage (scratches or minor dings) you find when you get it back home, like I have had with other shops.
Great friendly service

They were super helpful in fixing a slow tire leak I had. Dropped my vehicle off and was given a ride back to work and then picked up when it was done. I’ve had no issues since and they even refilled my washer fluid! Definitely recommend taking your vehicles here.
Very professional explained everything that needed to be done beforehand with price.
