TCRA announces Sonnax credit for members

The Torque Converter Rebuilders Association (TCRA) announced that Rebuilder Members in good standing will each receive a $200 credit from Sonnax. The credit can be used towards their existing Sonnax account or towards future purchase.

“I was pleasantly surprised when Sonnax offered this direct award to our Rebuilder Members,” said Mike Cargill, president of TCRA. “TCRA has a variety of benefits we already provide, and this one-time offer from Sonnax is really icing on the cake.”

“TCRA quickly suspended the monthly dues for their members when the pandemic first hit, and it inspired us to look for ways to lend a hand as well,” said said Steve Boyer, president of Sonnax. “With business ramping up beyond pre-COVID levels, we hope this effort helps Rebuilder Members serve their customers in these challenging times.”
