While this COVID-19 Pandemic seems to have put the world on halt, vehicle servicing is still needed on a daily basis. While many are home, as instructed, there are still those with Essential jobs where it’s crucial for them to get to work. Many of those people may struggle with deciding whether they should get their vehicle fixed or continue to drive through the problem or check engine light that concerns them. If you are a dealership that has been able to keep your Service Department open, perhaps you’ve considered using Antimicrobial solutions to help comfort your customers during these challenging times.

**What is an Antimicrobial?**

An antimicrobial is an agent that kills microorganisms or stops the growth of microorganisms. Antimicrobial supplies can kill viruses, bacteria, mold and fungus and can even remove harmful odors.

Applying these solutions to your customers’ vehicles will keep them safe and healthy while traveling to their essential jobs. Here are a few other reasons why you might want to consider offering some sort of Antimicrobial Solution for your dealership customers.

**Gives your Customers Peace of Mind**

Applying Antimicrobial solutions can be the key to regaining your service traffic you once had. Educate your customers on what these solutions can do in order to protect them from viruses and germs. This alone can put your customers’ minds at ease.

**Continue to Offer Convenience**

No need to stop offering rental cars when it comes to Antimicrobial solutions. These supplies can easily be applied to your vehicles to ensure a safe and clean ride to pass along to your customers for use.

Another convenience is that it allows you to offer curbside pickup without the customer needing to interact directly with your time, and vice versa! Sharing that info with your customers can certainly give them confidence in taking their vehicle to your team for service.

For more information on Antimicrobial solutions, [visit our Antimicrobial page](https://www.vanguarddealerservices.com/products/antimicrobial-solutions/). Vanguard Dealer Services has been working with our clients for over 20 years and will continue to help our clients however we can during these challenging times.
