NEW YORK, June 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM today announced it has become a certified vendor in the Reynolds Certified Interface (RCI) program.

Being certified in the RCI program gives SiriusXM the ability to securely exchange data with a Reynolds ERA® dealership management system (DMS) and supports SiriusXM's commitment to the security and integrity of customer data.

By successfully completing the certification process, SiriusXM can now give auto dealers using a Reynolds ERA DMS the ability to easily participate in the SiriusXM Pre-Owned and Service Lane Programs.  Dealers enrolled in the SiriusXM Pre-Owned Program can demonstrate SiriusXM during test drives and automatically give customers purchasing any pre-owned vehicle with a factory-installed satellite radio a three-month SiriusXM subscription. Dealers enrolled in the Service Lane Program can also give a two-month SiriusXM subscription to eligible customers visiting their service departments.

"SiriusXM has long maintained a very strong commitment to the dealer community to provide drivers with unparalleled in-vehicle entertainment as well as to protect the data necessary for us to serve our mutual customers," said Joe Verbrugge, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Automotive Remarketing and Retail Sales, SiriusXM.  "With our dealer programs now designated as RCI Certified, we look forward to working with even more dealers using a Reynolds ERA DMS as they join the more than 12,500 dealers currently enrolled in our Pre-Owned Program."

"Reynolds continues to enhance our DMS to help dealerships safely and securely exchange customer and DMS data with third-party providers," said Robert Schaefer, Vice President of Data Services at Reynolds and Reynolds. "We're pleased to add SiriusXM to the growing list of providers that have completed certification in the RCI Program and put in place data interfaces with the appropriate safeguards and verification for handling DMS data."
