"We need the REPAIR Act NOW!" In this video, automotive repair shop owners from across the country share why the REPAIR Act (Right to Equitable and Professional Auto Industry Repair) is critical to the future of their businesses and consumer rights. With the rapid advancements in vehicle technology, independent shops are increasingly locked out of essential repair data. Without the REPAIR Act, consumers will face limited repair choices, higher costs, and slower service as competition dwindles. Join these shop owners as they explain how this legislation will help ensure a level playing field, protect small businesses, and give vehicle owners the freedom to choose where they get their vehicles repaired. The time to act is NOW—let's keep our industry thriving and protect your right to repair!
