or taking it to a shop of your choice. Automobiles are becoming more and more
complex, this act ensures that you and/or your shop of choice has access to

This act will prevent the dealerships from monopolizing the repair market,
holding the customer "hostage" by forcing them to return to the manufacturer's
dealer for repair.
Did you know, they are already using "On-star" to track your recommended
maintenance cycles, set up your appointment and direct you to the dealer where
