Danny “The Count” Koker, host of the reality TV show Counting Cars, will make appearances during the grand opening of Federal-Mogul Motorparts first three “Garage Gurus” locations.
“As a self-taught mechanic, I can appreciate how challenging it must be for professional technicians to develop the specialized skills needed to diagnose and repair each new automotive technology,” Koker said. “Garage Gurus delivers that training and related support when, where and how technicians need it. This is a huge benefit to the thousands of professionals we all count on to keep our cars in safe and reliable condition.”
Garage Gurus is part of the Federal-Mogul’s Tech First initiative aimed at strengthening the automotive service industry’s support of the front-line professionals who repair and maintain vehicles.
Each Garage Gurus training center will include multiple vehicle repair/training bays equipped with the latest tools and will be staffed by more than 100 ASE certified Gurus, Federal-Mogul said. Operating out of these garages will be Gurus-On-The-Go product technology vans that will visit repair shops and technicians throughout each region.
Koker will attend the Garage Gurus grand openings in Skokie, Ill., on April 14; Van Nuys, Calif., on April 16; and Bronx, N.Y., on April 21. Open to any vehicle service professional, these grand opening celebrations take place from 6 to 10 p.m. and feature food trucks, live entertainment, facility tours and meet and greets with Federal-Mogul’s Garage Gurus.
