CARDONE Industries, Inc. announces the “3F Challenge,” an educational steering promotion based on their recent feature on the SPEED Channel’s “Two Guys Garage.”  The promotion, developed specifically for Automotive Aftermarket Professionals, offers valuable insight to properly performing power steering system repairs.  

The 3F Challenge was developed in response to an industry-wide concern with power steering warranty issues, which are often due to misconceptions about proper steering system maintenance.  CARDONE discovered that up to 30% of all steering comebacks are due to contamination in the steering system fluid.  They developed the 3F Challenge to help educate technicians on the importance of using the right Fluid, making sure they properly Flush the system and installing a steering system Filter – which make up the 3F’s.

Automotive professionals who want to participate should visit www.3Fchallenge.com before August 31, 2011. There, they will watch a short video by Kevin Byrd and Bryan Fuller of “Two Guys Garage” as they review power steering component replacement and the 3F’s.  After the video, participants will complete a 10-question multiple choice quiz to earn $25 off their next dining experience at participating restaurants through Restaurant.com.
