The REPAIR Act, introduced by U.S. Senators Josh Hawley and Ben Ray Luján, aims to expand car owners' options for automobile repairs by ensuring secure access to vehicle repair and maintenance data for owners, independent repair shops, and aftermarket manufacturers. This bipartisan legislation addresses the growing complexity of vehicle technology by guaranteeing the rights of vehicle owners and their chosen repair facilities to perform repairs while adhering to cybersecurity, intellectual property, and safety standards. The act prevents automakers from restricting access to critical repair information, tools, and parts, mandates the availability of vehicle data to consumers, and ensures Over-the-Air updates do not disable aftermarket parts. It also prohibits automakers from enforcing brand-specific tool or part usage, promoting consumer choice and affordability in auto repairs.
