    Because it’s the manufacturers RESPONSIBILITY. Not the local mechanics’.

    What is so difficult about this?

      The manufacturer is not the one performing the recall repair right now, it’s the dealership, so I don’t understand what the difference is between having the dealership mechanic and the independent mechanic perform the work if they have access to the same resources.

        The dealership is an effective partner and extension of the manufacturer. This is the relationship that’s been well established for decades. I’m finished with this discussion. You clearly don’t have the capacity to understand the business relationships required to make this new model work.

          I understand that. What I’m asking is why the same processes extended to the dealerships cannot also be extended to independent mechanics, through some kind of certification process if necessary.
