John Deere pays $99M in right-to-repair settlement
John Deere has agreed to a $99 million settlement in a landmark right-to-repair case, a major victory for farmers and independent mechanics who have long fought the company's restrictions on who can fix its equipment. The deal represents one of the largest right-to-repair settlements on record and is expected to set a precedent for other manufacturers facing similar legal challenges.
