The European Union has officially adopted a new set of right-to-repair rules designed to encourage people to repair broken devices, rather than replace them. One of the rules extends a product’s warranty by one year if it’s repaired while still covered. The European Union already requires companies to offer a two-year minimum warranty on products, but these new rules take things a step further.
But the coalition also noted limits to the EU rules, such as that they only covers consumer products, so wouldn’t include anything purchased by businesses or industrial goods. Manufacturers must supply third-party independent repair shops with spare parts and tools for a “reasonable price” under the new rules, but the coalition said there’s no guidance on what that means — effectively leaving it up to companies to decide what to charge.
