In addition, Dealertrack and F&I Express will join forces to provide dealerships with additional access to F&I product providers through the Dealertrack platform through Dealertrack eMenu and the Dealertrack Aftermarket Network. Through this workflow on Dealertrack, dealers will be able to access product rates, generate contracts and remit contracts to the providers. In the coming months, Dealertrack will provide more information about when providers and their rates will be added to the Dealertrack Aftermarket Network.

“Our aligned vision to provide powerful, innovative solutions to dealers to enhance workflow is a primary reason why we feel so strongly about our partnership with Cox Automotive, and expanding our relationship with Dealertrack is an important aspect of that,” said Brian Reed, President and CEO of F&I Express. “To include our award-winning Express Recoveries Solution on Dealertrack’s platform means lenders have increased and improved access to F&I providers for product cancellations.”
