WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Automotive Service Association (ASA) is urging New Jersey shop owners to contact their State Assembly members asking that they oppose Assembly Bill 931, the Motor Vehicle Owners' Right to Repair Act.Assembly Bill 931 would depend on a state agency and the New Jersey court system to assist repairers in acquiring automotive service information. ASA says the Motor Vehicles Owners' Right to Repair Act would put at risk the progress that has been made through the Automotive Service Association-Automaker Agreement, which already provides independent repairers access to service, tool and training information via automaker Web sites. "Right to Repair legislation has failed on the federal level in the past several congresses. Proponents of Right to Repair legislation have now moved to the state level. We hope New Jersey legislators will also say no to Right to Repair legislation and more government intervention," says Bob Redding, ASA's Washington, D.C., representative. ASA and other segments of the auto industry are working through the voluntary National Automotive Service Task Force, www.nastf.org, to ensure repairers timely service information via the automaker Web sites. ASA asks New Jersey repairers to contact their State Assembly members and urge them to oppose the Motor Vehicle Owners' Right to Repair Act, Assembly Bill 931. To view the language of N.J. A. 931 in its entirety and to send a pre-written letter to your representative, visit ASA's legislative Web site, www.TakingTheHill.com. |
