Local automotive technicians and repair shop owners will have an opportunity to preview new drivetrain and sealing technology starting November 3, 2026. Dana Incorporated is set to host an interactive showcase at the Venetian Expo during this year's Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo.

Why it matters

As the valley remains a central hub for the automotive service industry, trade shows like this highlight the latest hardware available for local repair shops to stock and install. These industry-specific previews allow professionals to examine new components before they become standard in the local aftermarket.

Dana Incorporated has introduced 500 new Victor Reinz gasket part numbers and 54 new Spicer aftermarket part numbers for the 2026 calendar year. Specific retail distribution timelines for these components remain unknown.
