From the 153rd General Assembly, this Act amends Title 3 by seeking to empower farmers and independent repair providers by establishing the Delaware Agricultural Equipment Right to Repair Act. The bill requires manufacturers of agricultural equipment to provide owners and third-party technicians with access—on fair and reasonable terms—to the same documentation, parts, and tools used by authorized dealers for diagnosing, maintaining, and repairing equipment.
This legislation aims to:
- Promote consumer choice and competitive repair markets
- Reduce downtime and repair costs for agricultural operations
- Address growing concerns over repair monopolies and digital lockouts
