The discussion will be led by John Eck, manager for the Wholesale Dealer Channel for General Motors Customer Care and Aftersales.

In addition to discussing topics and questions regarding the upcoming launch of MyPriceLink, Eck will touch on some highlights of GM’s 2016 aluminum repair program.

Participants will also receive a report on AASP-MN’s current initiatives and upcoming events.
