Missouri HB2871 requires manufacturers to provide repair information to independent repair providers and product owners.

Missouri HB2871 amends Chapter 407 to mandate that manufacturers offer repair information to independent repair providers and product owners. This information includes diagnostic and repair tools, updates to firmware, safety corrections, diagnostics, documentation, and embedded software. Manufacturers must provide this information in the same manner and time as given to authorized repair providers. The bill excludes certain security-related functions and medical devices. Owners and independent repair providers can purchase diagnostic repair tools from manufacturers.
