A year ago next month, several trade organizations signed a Right to Repair Memorandum of Understanding on access to heavy-duty service information for late-model trucks sold in the United States and Canada. The group included the Commercial Vehicle Solutions Network, Truck and Engine Manufacturers Association, Equip- ment and Tool Institute, Auto Care Association and Heavy Duty Aftermarket Canada.
