    Cars. Are. Gadgets. Too.

    Right to repair needs to start affecting vehicles now as well, shit’s getting ridiculous. Give me an electric car that isn’t a PITA to fix. Give me modules.

      The sad part is that cars had a “right to repair” fight decades ago and are in a much better position as far as repairability and being forced to make it easier than the manufacturers ever wanted.

      The manufacturers have been slowly using loopholes and apathy to erode repairability in recent decades, but cars are still better off than many other things like electronics, appliances, industrial equipment etc.
