Jan. 23, 2015—Identifix Inc., along with the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE), honored Edward Keikover, an ASE master automobile technician from Zeeland, Mich., with the Identifix/ASE Aftermarket Drivability Technician of the Year award.
The ceremony took place during the Fall Board of Governors meeting for the ASE in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. The ASE annual awards honor the top scorers on the ASE Certification Tests, along with other criteria such as on-the-job excellence and community service. Out of a talent pool of 300,000 ASE-certified technicians nationwide, 47 ranked high enough to receive awards.
Keikover co-owns three OK Tire Stores and has been an automotive technician for 35 years. Out of over 100 questions in the ASE tests in subjects such as engine performance, electrical, brakes, front end, steering and alignment, Keikover missed only one, which qualified him for the award.
