🎙️ Put Them On The Glass Podcast
In this episode, we break down HR 6688, the proposed legislation that could significantly impact automotive repair, vehicle modifications, and ADAS calibration standards.
As ADAS systems become standard across modern vehicles, the industry faces growing questions about liability, calibration effectiveness, documentation, and aftermarket modifications.
Industry experts discuss the challenges technicians and shop owners may face as legislation evolves and manufacturers are required to provide detailed specifications for modified vehicles.
This episode dives into:
• How HR 6688 could change the repair and modification landscape
• Why ADAS calibration standards are still unclear
• The legal ambiguity surrounding calibration liability
• Aftermarket vs OE parts and the impact on ADAS performance
• Why documentation, pre-scans, and test drives are becoming critical for liability protection
• The future of industry advocacy, technician education, and service information access
If you work in auto glass, collision repair, diagnostics, or ADAS calibration, this is a conversation you need to hear.
