WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10: KEEPING OUR CARS RUNNING

Profile America -- Wednesday, June 10th. It used to be that cars were fairly simple to repair, but they often broke down. Modern automobiles have become very reliable. They've also gotten extremely complicated -- with ABS brakes, traction control, navigation systems and even self- parking systems. That means there are more things to go wrong -- and more knowledge needed to repair problems. That's why this is National Automotive Service Professionals Week. The goal is to recognize mechanics across the country for their role in keeping America's millions of cars, trucks and buses on the road. There are nearly 430,000 automotive service facilities in the U.S. Each year, they generate more than $75 billion in business. You can find these and more facts about America from the U.S. Census Bureau online at www.census.gov.
