Standards of performance for repair facilities on alloy wheel repair

Guidelines for repair facilities on alloy wheel repairs.

The provincial government passed regulations governing the weld repair of aluminum alloy wheels.

Alloy wheel repairers must meet all these and all general standards of performance:

Requirement	Standard of performance
Regulation compliance	Each repair facility must comply with the Motor Vehicle Act Regulations and these procedures.
Required identification	Each repair must bear the appropriate identification as outlined in the Motor Vehicle Act Regulations. The repairer must ensure this identification is legible.
Repair vs replace decision	The decision on repair vs. replace rests with the repair facility. The repairer or contractor must notify ICBC if the wheel is not repairable.
Recycled/Repaired wheel price list	Approved repairers must supply claims offices with a price list of available, in-stock recycled or repaired wheels.
Response time	Repairers must make every effort to reduce delivery time in an emergency situation.
Repair rates	Repairers’ charges to ICBC for alloy wheel repairs must be based on the rates set by ICBC.

Refer to the Motor Vehicle Act Regulations, Division, 7.09, item 20 of the schedule.
