Please vote YES on Question 1. It will be the difference of being able to service your vehicle with your independent shop of your choice or having to use strictly Dealerships.
If passed, what would Question 1 do?
Car companies would be required to:
• Equip their vehicles with a standardized open access platform capable of securely communicating mechanical data directly from the vehicle. This is similar to the plug-in OBD-II port open access platform mandated by the 2012 referendum, only it will become a wireless version of the port.
• Ensure that a vehicle’s data is directly accessible by the owner through a mobile based application and upon authorization of the owner, the mechanical data also could be accessible by an independent repair facility or dealership.
