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.

My Buick with 25000 miles and I was just told the inner brake pads very bad, due to me “riding the brake.” I told them I drove a Lincoln Town Car for over 120,000 miles and never had bad brake pads. Strange, another person with a GM car was told the same thing, at the same time, and he had less than 25,000 miles. Poor parts or dishonest service department?
