Bill Summary
For legislation to expand the motor vehicle right to repair law. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.
AI Summary
This bill expands the "right to repair" law for motor vehicles in Massachusetts. It removes an exception that previously allowed heavy-duty vehicles built to custom specifications and sold for commercial purposes to be exempt from certain repair information requirements. The bill also specifies that manufacturers must provide access to their onboard diagnostic and repair information systems using non-proprietary interfaces, such as SAE J2534, SAE J1939, or ISO 22900 standards, or through an integrated self-contained onboard system or direct access through a non-proprietary vehicle interface.
