DealerTrack
Holdings, Inc. has announced that it will work with Asbury Automotive Group
(“Asbury”) to transition Asbury away from DealerTrack DMS. In
connection with Asbury’s IT strategic review, DealerTrack and Asbury have
concluded that it is not economic for DealerTrack to tailor its DMS to meet
Asbury’s new requirements. The transitioning of the DMS relationship
will not impact DealerTrack’s 2010 financial results. DealerTrack
will focus its DMS sales efforts against the full range of 17,000 automotive
dealerships and expects to continue to add many new dealership groups to its
customer ranks.
Asbury
will increase its purchase of other DealerTrack solutions and DealerTrack will
remain a preferred software provider to Asbury. In addition, Asbury
will use the DealerTrack credit application processing network as its preferred
credit application processing network in all Asbury stores where DealerTrack has
a corresponding relationship with that dealership’s captive finance
company.
