<p>The Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association is urging Government not to close the essential supply of automotive parts and repair services.</p>

<p>The unprecedented Coronavirus (COVID-19) health crisis will result in difficult decisions being made by the Government. This may include shutting down parts of our economy that are not deemed to be essential.</p>

<p>It is important that Government agencies recognize that auto parts supply and repair is an essential service. The industry must remain open to support emergency vehicles, essential transportation services and those that will need to support the most vulnerable members of our community.</p>

<p>“Our industry keeps other industries moving. Without parts supply and automotive repair, other services will suffer. Emergency vehicles, medical supply, food and other transportation will require time-critical replacement parts and urgent repair,” said Stuart Charity, CEO of the Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association.</p>

<p>“We want to make sure that we can keep cars and trucks on the road in this time of crisis, particularly for those who are supporting others or accessing medical care or medication. With delivery services being restricted by some supermarkets, being able to access a local supermarket for many people requires a car.</p>

<p>“We are calling on Government to ensure auto parts and repair is deemed an essential service so that our industry can play its role in supporting the country through these challenging times.”</p>

<p>At Randwick Car Care we follow strict hygiene standards in our office and workshop for both customers and our staff.  Our motor technicians are being consistently monitored and we have applied all the necessary measures as advised by the Government to keep our staff and customers safe.</p>

<p>In addition to our regular services, we are offering the option to DISINFECT all vehicles that have been worked on. With that said we have also introduced a Pick-up and Delivery Service to all our local customers to help with social distancing regulations and minimise the risk of infection.</p>

<p>If you require a car service or if your car needs a repair, you can be assured that Randwick Car Care will not only look after your needs but will also make sure that all serving and repairs are done to your vehicle are done with utmost care and precaution to help Stop The Spread of COVID-19</p>
