McHENRY – Since opening its mechanical division in the fall, the expanded Adams Auto Body and Service Center has achieved another distinction – becoming a NAPA AutoCare center.

Adams is now one of about 14,000 NAPA AutoCare centers nationwide to have earned the invitation-only designation, said Russ Ozminski, NAPA regional vice president.

“What it tells customers is that the business owner cares enough by using quality parts, and through the training and quality of his technicians … for him to qualify to be part of the NAPA AutoCare and Collision Center Program,” Ozminski said.

Adams General Manager Rick Corso said he is excited about the new partnership, which links the nationally recognizable NAPA name — not to mention its exceptional warranty — with the locally highly regarded Adams name. Certain discounts also come with the partnership, which spells savings for consumers.

NAPA offers a 24-month, 24,000-mile nationwide warranty, meaning that if a problem ever should arise, customers will find a hassle-free fix no matter where in the country they might be.

“That’s a very nice plus,” said Jay Adams, owner of Adams Auto Body and Service Center, located on Route 120 just east of Chapel Hill Road.

The new NAPA designation applies to Adams’ auto and truck, collision and mechanical divisions. To learn more about the NAPA AutoCare program and distinction, visit www.napaautocare.com.
