Give drivers information needed about vehicles
Jul. 20, 2010 12:05 am
The Motorcycle Riders Foundation believes that consumers are entitled to the freedom to choose how their motorcycle, car or other type of vehicle is maintained, serviced or upgraded. That's why we support the Motor Vehicle Owners' Right to Repair Act (S 3181/H.R. 2057).
This bipartisan bill protects the right of American consumers to choose how they take care of their vehicles, be it in their driveway or at a trusted repair facility. It simply ensures that they have access to all the information required to complete service and repairs. Vehicles, including motorcycles, are increasingly complex with more and more computer technology, and that is only going to increase. Access to accurate service and repair information from manufacturers is essential to the safety and well being of the entire American motoring public.
Visit www.righttorepair.org to send a letter your congressional representatives, urging them to support the Right to Repair Act.
