supplier issues Right to Repair Description: MEMA supports the right of American consumers to have motor vehicle service performed at the repair location of their choice. Furthermore, independent repair shops and replacement parts suppliers must have access to the necessary information to diagnose, service, and provide replacement parts for the repair of all motor vehicles. Status: In 2007, H.R. 2694, the Motor Vehicles Owners’ Right to Repair Act of 2007, was introduced and has 34 co-sponsors. No committee action was taken. 2008 Anticipated Action: MEMA will continue to work and support improvements in National Automotive Service Task Force (NASTF) governance and services and monitor progress of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) audit of industry compliance with the federal requirements associated with emissions control systems. Furthermore, MEMA will work to assure the independent repair industry receives the same or similar communications, education, and training on the available data, diagnostic equipment, replacement parts, and tools as the original equipment dealerships.
