We are proud to receive recognition for our industry-leading technology, tools and processes that benefit our customer. We also commend and thank our associates for their incredible work in supporting FCA, which makes an award like this possible."

"These are the 'best of the best' in our industry and they will continue playing a leading role in our collective success."
