Thankfully, most automakers do make diagnostic tools/parts/info available to everyone (due to Massachusetts' 2012 right to repair law). The automakers don't really mind because more users licensing that software is more revenue. If anyone cares in that industry, it's the dealers.
- zamnos 3y agoAutomakers are required to (thanks to the 2012 law you mentioned), so characterizing them, saying they don't mind seems like overselling it.
- bonestamp2 3y agoThey're only required to do it in MA though. They do it everywhere because it's more revenue, so I think it's fair to say they don't mind. It's the dealers that mind.
