The Board of Directors of the Iowa Chapter of the IGA has announced its support for the national IGA's position urging reform in the auto glass industry's benchmark pricing.

The state board, representing its members, shares the IGA's concern that current benchmark lists do not consistantly reflect current manufacturer's pricing schedules. This situation can and has let to unfair pricing that acts to the detriment of vehicle owners, insurers, and the auto glass replacement installers.

The Iowa chapter of the IGA urges other state associations to take a position on this critical issue, and to convey that position to NAGS and the Chicago Group. Additionally, the Iowa chapter of the IGA is urging the Mitchell Group and NAGS to further postpone their benchmark re-evaluation until the Chicago Group findings are complete.
