The "Right to Repair Consumer Electronics Act" is designed to enhance consumer rights by requiring original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to provide necessary documentation, tools, and parts to consumers and independent repair providers under fair terms. The bill prohibits OEMs from using parts pairing to limit device functionality and mandates that they make documentation available at no cost, while allowing them to charge for reasonable shipping and preparation costs. It also outlines the responsibilities of repair providers, including informing customers about their rights and the nature of parts used in repairs.

This bill amends the existing act by clarifying its applicability to consumer electronic equipment sold or in use in New Mexico, specifying that provisions will apply to equipment sold or used on or after the effective date, with exceptions for certain older devices. It establishes that the Attorney General can enforce violations of the act starting July 1, 2027, and sets the overall effective date for the new provisions to July 1, 2025.
