The Right To Repair Act and what it means for you
By David Maillie
As cars become more advanced and complex with each passing year, it has now reached a point where car owners must seek or get repair work done at a new car dealership.They do not have the choice of many repairs at regular repair shops or similar as they do not have access to the technology that can read the newer computers and service information.Without this an effective repair and diagnosis cannot be done.This has become a great money making opportunity for the car dealers and their manufacturers to effectively monopolize the repair market and jack up prices on parts and services.This is why there is a new bill that, if congress passes it, will change this and make car repairs and service a much more affordable option.
Since congress instituted the anti trust legislation which encourages fair trade and business practices (some companies like Microsoft still try to ride the extreme edge of these laws) most businesses have abided.Some companies, though, when afforded an opportunity to make extra cash (and lots of it) by stifling the competition and artificially raising prices and entrapping customers (can we say illegal monopoly) run at the opportunity.Companies like the auto manufacturers of today have currently done with the with holding of crucial technology and information systems to regular or non name repair shops.This effectively makes it so that you the consumer immediately have a greatly reduced choice of where you can go for repairs and service – just new car dealerships and no where else!
That is not fair, causes unfair competition and business hurdles, drives up prices and, most importantly, is highly illegal.Yes, the big auto manufacturers are currently spending millions on high paid lobbying firms in Washington to get the bill and subsequent legislation squashed or at least greatly reduced.This is how business is done in Washington and on the federal level.Its called pork barrel politics and it isn’t about what’s fair and good for the consumer.Many times a well intentioned bill, funding or similar gets squashed or minimized to the point where it either doesn’t have any effect or, in some places, the complete opposite results.
Case in point, the AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax) was brought about to tax the rich more and in the end it actually doesn’t touch the rich and entraps many members of the middle class.The rich can afford big lawyers and lobbyists and literally get away with murder (for a great example just look at O.J. Simpson and his dream team with Jonnie Cochran and others).They can get a presidential pardon for almost anything by donating $500,000 or so to a presidents memorial library fund or similar (just look at the list of people that Bill Clinton pardoned on his way out of the presidency (one was an automotive magnate with over 50 felony charges – all pardoned away))!
