Within the U.S. territory, the management of machine repairs of any kind is not in the hands of the consumer, it resides solely in the responsibilities of the manufacturing companies that own the product of the case. In the world of the Internet, for example, there has been a general cultural awareness regarding McDonald's ice cream machines, which seem to be out of service all the time, disappointing customers every time. Although the issue has now become a meme, it specifically represents one of the problems that most affect businesses and individuals on American soil.

Not having the ability to repair one's own machines has considerable impacts on the performance of owners, who are forced to suspend a service while waiting for an employee of the original manufacturing company to have a way to go and repair what is no longer working.

In recent years, however, there has been a movement dedicated to the “Right to Repair”. Thanks to its achievements in recent months, 2025 is proving to be one of the most productive years ever.
