To me, that clause seems to be overly broad since I'm interpreting it to mean that the manufacturers have to indefinitely support all of their products.
If it's limited to all equipment that the OEM is willing to sell to at least one entity, then I'd say it's perfectly reasonable.
- tzs 7y agoI believe that it is meant to be interpreted in conjunction with the item above it on the list: > 2. Guarantee farmer/repair technician access to the identical information, parts, and tools that are available to dealerships. These items must be fairly and reasonably priced (taking into account both small and large producers) and be delivered in a timely manner. They could stop providing information, parts, and tool for old models, but only if they also no longer provide the information, parts, and tools to their dealers.
