Yeaaaah fuck you. They're trying to push that shit here in yuropistan with some gay ass law that if a repair exceeds the perceived value of the car, your car is marked as totalled and taken off the roads. That 100 buck civic type r with blown adjustable konis? Yeah, taken off road use and sent to the heaps. Your grandpas 69 mustang you got for free has a leaky carb? To the chopper it goes. The issue here is that (((they))) are the ones deciding if the repairs exceed the value of the car and (((they))) decide if it will be fixed or not. Not the owner.Luckily it hasn't passed, yet.
>>28633927do they not differentiate between statutory and economic writeoffs? even in nanny state australia they do that
>>28633927insurance companies have done that in the UK for ages. They take the book value for the car, and if repairs cost more, they just pay you instead.The only plus side is, if it's classed as repairable (N or S damage) you can request to keep the car as well and fix it yourself.
>>28633939My guy, it's a ploy to get old cars off the roads because muh environment muh safety muh gdp>>28633941Yeah insurance here is the same, but this is government meddling
>>28633946soery i meant do they not already do repairable vs statutory writeoffs and they're now trying to get rid of the former? that's fucking dirty
>>28633957Yeah they're trying to get rid of the former. Like imagine you have your 500 buck 1996 corolla with half a million on the clock and rusty arches. You have a welder, you have the materials and the time and think to yourself "fuck it, I'll do it", but the government doesn't see it that way. Those fenders are 250 bucks a pop plus tip and the workshop hours are at least a grand, you car is not worth the money or effort to fix, sorry chud buy a new car. >B-but I can do it for freeNot my problem, your car is written off, have a nice day
>>28634137man. it's interesting to see this modern take on serfdom
>>28634137Am American here. So I clearly understand you, does this mean that if your insurance company deems the car not worth it, they brand the title thus preventing you yourself from making it legal again, even if you do the repairs yourself?
>>28635665It's not the insurance even, it's literally the government itself. Insurances here are pretty chill, they'll give you your charred wreck back if you ask and pay whatever you're owed if you want to. Imagine if someone dings your door and the DMV or whatever government organisation just goes "yeah nah, your car is literally unfixable, buy a new one"
>OP posts propaganda from carmakers trying to to stop state laws mandating car owners and independent shops get access to PCM coding and other data manufacturers are encrypting to prevent vehicles from getting repaired anywhere other than a dealer>/o/ retards think "right to repair" refers to totaled cars and start arguing about salvage title bullshitLucky for you and your shitty reading comprehension, your parents still let you live in the house at age 26
>>28633870Why exactly is the car collecting data on me, where have I agreed to that and why are you selling the data to third parties that may or may not include China?
>>28633870SIR YES SIRI WILL NOT REPAIR MY OWN CAR SIRI WILL DONATE MONEY TO THE AUTO LOBBY SO I CAN SPEND EVEN MORE MONEY ON PARTS AND MAINTENANCE SIRGOBBLESS MURICA SIR
>>28633927someone should get the environment nuts to fight this stuff but they're all probably jacking off over EVs
>>28635697it's not the same thing but it's a similar issue. you should get the stick out of your ass.
>>28635699you agreed to this when you downloaded the app to start your car so you can warm it up from bed when its cold out
You know if they just manufactured the repair parts here in America...no, that would make too much sense.
>>28633870I am willing to humour this, what is their justification
>>28633927The fuck ar you talking about? If the car doesn't pass MOT it's not on the road and that's it - they can't take it away . The only one who can declare it scrap is you.
>>28637908Manufacturers argue that if they do not have the right to restrict access to proprietary software and service information then it opens the door to security vulnerabilities
>>28637934is that the actual argument being presented or is that your personal interpretation.
>>28637934given that the picture talks about national security im quite certain this is what it talks about
>>28637928Yet, that's what the government and eu is trying to change
>>28637959proofs?

>>28633870>RevUp AmericaApparently created sometime during August 2025. Very little information exists about it.The organization does not exist as a lobbying group in the United States either for the House or Senate. There are also no indications they have every lobbied a Congressman either according to LD-203 reports.This could very easily be rageb8.
>>28639026Getting parts for a tesla is a massive pain in the ass
>>28639297holy lel I wonder if that angry right-to-repair guy who bitches on youtube funded a false flag to get more traffic
>>28639297>This could very easily be rageb8Nah, you see tons of these ads in Washington all the time. It's to get these politicians to vote your way, because they don't read the 1000+ paged bill. They see an ad and go "oh, so that's we're voting on today". It's not for the public.
>>28639297You need to get off the internet and touch grass irl more anon. This is some bullshit political group some lobbyist for vehicle OEMs that was set up to fight the right to repair act, it is very common in politics. This is what lobbying pays for.

>>28640563https://www.revupamerica.com/issues/#right-to-repairWhat’s the problem?Americans have the right to drive safe cars. But Congress and state capitals are considering legislation that threatens your safety and privacy.These bills, known misleadingly as “Right to Repair” legislation, sound like they are designed to support car owners – but in reality, “right to repair” strips away critical protections that keep your vehicle – and your family – safe.A bill in Congress called the REPAIR Act (H.R. 1566) claims to put drivers first – but it does the opposite. By weakening data protections and allowing broad third-party access to sensitive vehicle systems, the bill opens the door for non-vetted, lower-quality, often counterfeit auto parts to make their way into your car.These cheap knock-offs may look the same as real, verified auto parts, but they can seriously impair your vehicle’s performance and reliability. Even worse, they can fail when you need them the most – putting your safety on the line when you get into a car accident.The REPAIR Act also raises serious cybersecurity concerns. It weakens protections around vehicle systems, allowing hackers and data thieves to remotely extract your personal information without your knowledge or your consent, and misuse it in ways that compromise your security and privacy.Instead of protecting drivers, the bill weakens the very systems and parts that keep you safe.
>>28640579It's a bunch of bullshit playing on the publics fear of china, all the right to repair bill would do is stop OEMs from selling the data to China (which they already do) because it would be free and open source. Ford, GM and FCA already market every ounce of data they are already collecting that they can. As for the "HURR DURR CHEAPER QUALITY CHINA PARTS" we literally already get them in all our parts stores, just chose to not buy them and buy higher quality shit. Quit being a fucking retard anon.
>>28640610Don't respond to bot posts, anon. That's an agregious ragebait chatgpt post.
You do not have a right to take my piss missile off the road. TKD.
>>28640640taken from that sockpuppet website, anon.>>28640579>It weakens protections around vehicle systems, allowing hackers and data thieves to remotely extract your personal information without your knowledge or your consent,1, why is my personal info in a vehicle system in the first place? it is completely unnecessary to the function of a car.2, we don't need to wait for hackers and datatheives. the fucking car makers already did that. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a61711288/automakers-sold-customer-data-for-small-profits/
this is so scummy lmao
>>28640995>taken from that sockpuppet website, anonSorry, I didnt realize. Good lord, that's obviously AI writing. I guess I shouldn't be surprised those fags can't put in the tiniest bit of effort to write out their own mission statement.
