摘要：	It's been almost one and a half years since Massachusetts voters approved the Right to Repair Act, which would give independent repair shops the ability to access vehicle data necessary to make repairs. The lawsuit against this act has caused many delays surrounding its implementation, and though some delays are to be expected, the Massachusetts Right to Repair Committee has now submitted a brief calling for a prompt decision. According to the brief, this isn't the first time auto manufacturers have tried to limit independent repair shops' access to information needed to make repairs. Auto manufacturers put up similar resistance when the Clean Air Act required them to install onboard diagnostic (OBD) systems in vehicles and again when anti-theft devices or immobilizers were introduced. In both instances, the auto manufacturers presented arguments against allowing independent repair shops to have access, which were later found to be unwarranted.
