Thank you, Mr. President.
The next step is clear: Congress should pass @DrNealDunnFL2’s REPAIR Act and protect every driver's right to access their vehicle's repair data, choose their repair shop, and keep repair costs affordable.

The “right to repair” is about more than fixing cars—it’s about protecting property rights, boosting competition, and keeping small businesses alive. Americans should control what they own, not just the manufacturers. https://t.co/oXCIK45SRO
"Americans today spend an average of more than $50,000 on a new car. Yet without access to the diagnostic data needed to repair it, many drivers effectively lose control over how that vehicle is maintained."

Welcome @eBay as the newest member of the Car Coalition!
Together, we are working to advance the REPAIR Act (H.R. 1566 / S. 1379) and protect Americans’ right to repair by ensuring drivers and independent repair shops can access the data and tools needed to fix modern vehicles.
New from @BostonGlobe's @HiawathaBray: vehicle repair and maintenance costs are up 46 percent since 2020, nearly twice the rate of overall inflation.
One local vehicle owner was forced to complete routine brake maintenance in phases due to its multi-thousand-dollar price tag: “Once you need brakes, what choice do you have?”
Learn how the #REPAIRAct will help bring down auto repair costs and protect consumer choice: https://t.co/VxTMuWgQP8
This week in @AfterMktMatters: nearly 60% of consumers now prefer aftermarket parts over automaker-branded parts, a 14-point year-over-year jump. Meanwhile, nearly half (47%) of independent shops had to turn away data-intensive repairs because they didn’t have the proper tools or software.
The #REPAIRAct will ensure consumers can choose safe, affordable aftermarket parts, also giving independent shops the information they need to service today’s cars. Learn more at https://t.co/wvzWfzNXVT.

Auto repair costs are spiking across the country; and automaker repair restrictions are making matters worse.
By restricting access to repair data, automakers are forcing consumers into their exclusive service networks where costs are nearly 40% higher. The #REPAIRAct will ensure equitable repair data access, increasing choice and bringing costs down for consumers and small businesses.
Tell Congress to bring vehicle repair prices down with #REPAIRAct: https://t.co/76iMG7iIfK
Data restrictions are crushing small businesses across the country, per @NFIB's @LouisBertolotti in @dcexaminer.
“Half of independent repair shops report turning away customers weekly because of these failures, costing them upwards of $3 billion each year…Small businesses, and especially independent repair shops, need the #REPAIRAct.”

#NEW from @laurenfix in @NEWSMAX : "When owners cannot perform basic work or choose where to service their vehicles, ownership becomes more like a long-term lease with conditions attached."
Per Fix, “Something as simple as removing a seat for interior work could become a dealer-only procedure” thanks to automaker parts and data restrictions. Read more: https://t.co/g16Xl4cQ3j
