Federal Agency Urges Car Manufacturers to Ignore Massachusetts' Right to Repair Law
TL;DR Summary
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has urged automakers to ignore Massachusetts' new "Right to Repair" law, which is meant to give independent mechanics access to diagnostic data in new cars. The NHTSA claims sharing that data would make it easier for criminals to steal data or take control of cars remotely, potentially leading to vehicle crashes, injuries, or deaths. The law was supposed to go into effect on June 1, but the feds are advising automakers to ignore it.
