Cheaper Car Repair Parts: Ending Manufacturer Monopoly.

This new law aims to make cheaper car repair parts, like hoods and fenders, more accessible. Citizens will be able to repair their vehicles at lower costs, as manufacturers will no longer have exclusive rights to sell these parts after 30 months from the vehicle's market introduction. This could lead to potential savings for drivers.
Key points
Allows other companies to produce and sell replacement parts for car exteriors (e.g., hoods, fenders, side mirrors).
After 30 months from a new car model's introduction, manufacturers will lose exclusive design rights for these parts.
The goal is to reduce car repair costs for vehicle owners.
