Cars have become more and more "computers on wheels". While technological innovations provide better emissions control as well as more safety and comfort, they have made it increasingly challenging to service or repair a vehicle. Without fair and full access to technical information, multi-brand diagnostic tools and test equipment, replacement parts and training, the independent automotive aftermarket will no longer be able to provide the 260 million motorists in the EU with the quality service and parts they deserve in the aftermarket care of their vehicles.
Many local and European policymakers have very limited knowledge of these challenges and of the contribution the independent automotive aftermarket makes to the EU’s economy and society.
To improve the visibility and secure the future of this vitally important sector, aftermarket and motorists representatives have come together to defend not only their very right to repair – but importantly, consumers’ right to have their vehicles serviced, maintained and repaired at a workshop of their choice.
