Fighting for the Right to Repair
Manage episode 344377190 series 3362508
Are cybersecurity concerns being used to unfairly squeeze out the independent aftermarket from competing against franchised dealers?
This episode we are looking at how vehicle manufacturers are restricting access to vehicle data and what effect that is having on workshops. Professional Motor Mechanic editor Kieran Nee visits Neville Smith at his workshop, Nev’ll Fix It, along with Neil Pattemore, technical director at UK AFCAR, to find out more. Neil is working on the frontline when it comes to ensuring the aftermarket retains fair access to vehicle data and is the country’s leading expert on the issue.
This episode also sees the return of the Professional Motor Factor segment with editor Tom Henman recapping his recent trip to Automechanika, as well as catching up with Auto Spares Wales’ Steve Jones and Tony Griffiths.
You’ll also hear from Headline Sponsor Corteco, one of the leading suppliers of components for the Independent Automotive Aftermarket.
