The federal government, pursuing right-to-repair laws, wants to hear your farm equipment repair horror stories - Entrepreneur Generations

President Biden recently signed an executive order that asked the Federal Trade Commission to tackle right-to-repair laws long sought by farmers. Now, the FTC wants to hear from you, Chris Velazco reports for The Washington Post. "If you’ve ever had a warranty issue that never quite felt right — for instance, a company claiming you voided your computer’s warranty by letting a friend fix it — the FTC wants to know about it."

You can submit a complaint at reportfraud.ftc.gov. And don't skimp on the gory details: FTC spokesperson Juliana Gruenwald Henderson told the Post that they encourage people to provide "as much detail as possible."

If the FTC ultimately passes right-to-repair laws, "you might be able to easily fix your own ailing gadgets with official repair manuals and parts," Velazco reports. "Not exactly the handy type? That’s okay — you may also have access to a wider array of third-party repair shops and technicians to help you instead."
