Concerns right to repair farm equipment and lawn mowers.
This bill requires manufacturers of farm equipment (like tractors and combines) and lawn mowers sold in New Jersey to provide independent repair shops and equipment owners with the same diagnostic tools, service documentation, and parts as they offer to their own authorized repair providers. It mandates that manufacturers make this information available at no charge or "fair and reasonable terms," including security-related repair documentation for equipment with immobilizer systems. The law prohibits manufacturers from forcing authorized repair providers to use proprietary formats if standardized options exist. Violations carry a civil penalty of up to $500 per offense, aiming to increase repair competition and options for farmers and homeowners.
