Podcast: Digital Data Will Define The Automotive Industry

Right To Repair can be a confusing topic for both shop owners and consumers, but data access will continue to be important.

Right to Repair promises unprecedented access to vehicle data, but that may not mean what you or your customers think it does. Joe Register, VP of Emerging Technology with the AutoCare Association, tells ShopOwner editor Doug Kaufman accessing the data stream and interpreting the information contained within are only some of the challenges facing the industry today.

This podcast is sponsored by AAPEX 2021.
