You can trick your whip all you want, but GM says that car is still theirs, no matter what you’ve paid. In a hearing this week, General Motors attorney Harry Lightsey said that purchasing and paying off your GM vehicle is a license agreement and not ownership.
The U.S Copyright Office is holding a hearing on whether anyone other than the vehicle’s manufacturer has the right to alter the that car’s copyrighted software. With modern design being what it is, this means almost altering anything about the vehicle.
Mechanics and private owners are saying they need to be allowed to make repairs on their vehicles to keep them running or maintain their business. But GM is saying that anyone unauthorized altering anything about the vehicle could create problems with the software and endanger the driver. This sounds more like a business ploy on the part of GM to hold a monopoly on vehicle repairs.

You cant have ownership of anything you purchase, GM aside, The Federal and State Govt. Own title to your vehicles, homes etc.. That is why you have to register all vehicles through the state, all homes through the state… The State or Federal Govt can put a lean against your property at anytime and the burden of proof is on you, the Deed and titles are registered and miss the taxes on anything and you will see who pens your property when the doors are locked..
