Modern vehicles are more high-tech—and more disposable. With collision repair costs soaring and insurance write-offs becoming the norm, the economics of fixing a car have changed drastically. Stuart Klein from AIA Canada breaks down why today’s vehicles are harder (and costlier) to repair than ever before. Learn how lightweight materials, advanced safety systems, and skyrocketing part costs are pushing insurers to write off more cars, even for minor damage. Stuart also explains the growing skills shortage in the repair industry, what it means for timelines, and how you can make smarter decisions as a car owner. Discover why your old fender-bender might now mean a total loss—and what’s next for repair shops trying to keep up. GUEST:Stuart Klein Originally aired on 2025-11-18
