AISIN earned the honor by consistently exceeding industry quality standards and demonstrating its value as a trusted Worldpac partner, delivering exceptional warranty rates and maintaining low returns across its product line.

“Receiving this award is a testament to our OE-based heritage and commitment to quality, which is one of the core reasons our customers continue to trust and rely on AISIN products,” said Larrow Kaufman, assistant general manager of North American Business Development, AISIN Aftermarket & Service of America, Inc. “Our warranty percentage is consistently one of the lowest for the volume of sales we generate, which is something we’re very proud of. We’re pleased to have Worldpac recognize our company with this prestigious Quality Award.”
Among the many AISIN products that Worldpac distributes, which includes products from over 20 different product categories, the AISIN TKH-002 Engine Timing Belt Kit with Water Pump has been one of its most popular.
“We’re honored to present AISIN with the Quality Award during this year’s STX conference,” shared John Hamilton, president and CEO at Worldpac. “Here at Worldpac, our business would not be possible without the incredible partnership of our suppliers, and we’re lucky to have such powerful brands, like AISIN, help deliver the right part at the right time to our customers.”
