Right To Repair? Auto Dealers Want Control
ResumeAuto dealers versus mechanics — or dealers versus parts manufacturers. Whichever way it's framed, a big fight is taking shape at the State House once again over the so-called right-to-repair bill. Big dollars are involved.
Supporters say the measure will give independent mechanics access to information they need to fix cars. Opponents say the bill would give manufacturers proprietary information.
The Senate has already passed its version of the measure. The House legislation is pending.
Guests:
- Arthur Kinsman, coordinator for the Massachusetts Right to Repair Coalition
- Charles Territo, communications director for the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers
