Description
If your vehicle breaks down, shouldn’t you have the right to fix it on your own terms? That’s the question we’re tackling this week as we explore the difficulties consumers face when sellers of goods and equipment – from vehicles to electronics, and even the McDonalds McFlurry machines – maintain exclusive and costly rights to keep them working. Law360 reporter Mike Curley joins Pro Say to break down the so-called “right to repair,” and how lawmakers, regulators and litigants are responding to the issue. Also this week, Mexico looks to hold U.S. gunmakers accountable for border trafficking deaths; the SEC continues its push for increased climate risk-related disclosures from businesses; and finally, a fight between two similarly-named D.C. lobbying firms turns ugly when one tells the other he’ll “bleed him.”
