is calling on its members and the wider auto care community to take immediate action in the fight for the right to repair with the launch of the “#RighttoRepair, RIGHT NOW” challenge. The initiative encourages every member to send a new letter to their legislator, demanding swift action on Right to Repair legislation.

The challenge is designed to amplify the voices of consumers and industry professionals alike, ensuring that their message reaches the halls of Congress. As part of the challenge, participants are asked not only to urge their legislators to pass H.R. 906, “The REPAIR Act,” but also to spread the word by tagging three colleagues, friends or industry peers on social media, urging them to do the same.

Here’s how to participate in the #RighttoRepair, RIGHT NOW challenge in three steps:

  • Send a New Letter: Visit repairact.com to send our updated letter to your legislator.
  • Take a Selfie: Take a selfie featuring a message that you took action. Post about your action on social media, using the hashtag #RighttoRepair.
  • Tag More People: Challenge three others to do the same by tagging them directly in your post.

“As summer comes to a close and Congress picks back up from its August recess, it is now a critical moment for us to make as much noise as possible on the right to repair issue to capture the attention of our elected officials,” said Bill Hanvey, president and CEO,

. “We want to make sure Congress knows how important right to repair is to the American people, and one of the best ways to capture their attention is through grassroots efforts like the ‘#RighttoRepair, RIGHT NOW’ challenge. In the shadow of an election that is less than 100 days away, I ask that all members of our industry partake in this social media campaign with us to keep this fight for the right to repair alive on Capitol Hill.”

The Auto Care Association provides all the resources necessary to participate in this campaign, including letter templates, legislator contact information, and

      Understanding ECM Issues and Choosing the Right Replacement
      By Clifford Auto Parts
      Have you ever been left scratching your head over why your car is stalling unexpectedly, guzzling fuel, or struggling to start? The culprit could be your Engine Control Module (ECM)—the brain of your vehicle’s engine. ECMs play a vital role in controlling essential engine functions, including fuel injection, ignition timing, and emission systems. When this critical component malfunctions, it can lead to significant performance issues or even a complete breakdown.
      Common Signs of ECM Failure:
      Sudden or repeated stalling while driving Reduced fuel efficiency Check Engine light illuminated with no clear cause Difficulty starting or keeping the engine running What to Do When Your ECM Fails Replacing a faulty ECM doesn’t have to be a daunting task. Start by identifying the exact make, model, and engine specifications of your vehicle to ensure compatibility with a replacement ECM. Using an incompatible unit can lead to further issues, including miscommunication between the ECM and your car’s systems.
      Why Quality Matters in ECM Replacements A high-quality ECM replacement can restore your vehicle’s performance and prevent recurring issues. Here are some features to look for in a replacement part:
      Rigorous Testing: Choose an ECM that has been tested to meet or exceed OEM standards. Lifetime Warranty: A warranty provides peace of mind and indicates confidence in the product. Fast Shipping: Getting your ECM quickly reduces vehicle downtime. Where to Find Reliable ECMs When searching for a replacement ECM, you want a supplier who offers reliability, competitive pricing, and excellent customer support. Many suppliers claim to provide the best parts, but finding one with a proven track record can make all the difference.
      One resource to explore is

      HCI Equity Partners Launches Driven Distribution Group
      By Counterman
      link hidden, please login to view announced the launch of link hidden, please login to view, a new automotive aftermarket distribution platform. The launch coincides with Driven Distribution Group’s acquisition of the auto parts and accessories distribution business of Chicago Parts & Sound, following the recapitalization of Tri-State Enterprises, Inc. in November 2023. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed. By bringing together CPS and Tri-State under the Driven Distribution Group umbrella, HCI said it “aims to establish a leading platform in the automotive aftermarket industry by equipping its brands with shared resources, strategic vision, investment and advanced technology to enable its companies to deliver best-in-class customer service.” Both CPS and Tri-State will continue to operate under their respective brands, while benefiting from the shared resources of the Driven Distribution Group platform.
      “We are thrilled to welcome the CPS team to the Driven Distribution platform. Consistent with our original platform thesis, CPS represents a geographically strategic beachhead in the Midwest and is a great complement to Tri-State’s existing product categories. We look forward to working together to achieve our shared vision for growth,” said Scott Gibaratz, partner at HCI.
      Chicago Parts & Sound, based in Elk Grove Village, IL, with additional locations in Illinois and Wisconsin, is a warehouse distributor focused on automotive aftermarket parts, batteries, consumables, and accessories. The company serves auto dealerships, independent repair shops, municipalities/governments and company fleets. 
      Bob Lederer, co-owner of CPS, said, “the growth of Tri-State Enterprises parallels that of CPS – just in a different part of the country. Opportunities to combine businesses of such similar backgrounds, culture, and customer focus make tremendous sense for all stakeholders in each company.”
      “We are extremely impressed with the stellar business and established market reputation Bob and Jackie Lederer have built over the past 22 years. The combination of CPS and Tri-State as part of the Driven Distribution Group platform will enable us to expand our resources and capabilities to better serve our employees and customers,” said Tristan Taylor, CEO of Tri-State.
