BETHESDA, MD – Congressional support for the Motor Vehicle Owners’ Right to Repair Act (H.R. 2694) has reached 40 sponsors.

The three new legislators supporting the “Right to Repair Act” are Reps. Shelly Berkley (D-NV), Yvette Clarke (D-NY) and Brad Miller (D-NC).

“We want to thank the three new co-sponsors for their support of this vital piece of legislation and their commitment to ensuring that their constituents retain the ability to choose where to have their vehicle serviced and repaired,” said AAIA President and CEO Kathleen Schmatz. "Vehicles are becoming increasingly sophisticated with virtually every system either monitored or controlled by computers. Servicing these vehicles to keep them in safe working condition requires ready access to complete and accurate information from the car companies. Right to Repair ensures that car owners and their trusted repair shops have the same access to safety alerts and repair information as the franchised new car dealer network.”
