Massachusetts Question 1

In 2020, the Vehicle Data Access Requirement Initiative (the "Right to Repair Law") was placed before voters as Ballot Question 1. The initiative was designed to enhance the existing 2013 Motor Vehicle Right to Repair Law by including vehicles that used telematics systems, thereby ensuring broader access to repair data

Voting 'Yes'

A "yes" vote supported requiring manufacturers that sell vehicles with telematics systems in Massachusetts to equip them with a standardized open data platform beginning with model year 2022 that vehicle owners and independent repair facilities may access to retrieve mechanical data and run diagnostics through a mobile-based application.

Voting 'No'

A "no" vote opposed requiring vehicles beginning with model year 2022 to be equipped with a standardized open data platform that vehicle owners and independent repair facilities may access to retrieve mechanical data and run diagnostics through a mobile-based application, thereby maintaining that vehicle owners and independent repair facilities may access mechanical and diagnostic data through a personal computer.
