Charging access to the “Portal” (Which is I assume nothing more than a glorified name for an online parts, repair/recall notes and technical data repository) for a third party company that has agreed to service and maintain your product/reputation, when you cannot provide a network yourself, is arrogant, stupid, greedy and suicidal from an end user perspective.
It’s like saying you can sell our cars for us so that we make money, but the bits we don’t do ourselves like repair and maintenance will have to be done by your mechanics blindfolded, if you want them to see what they need you have to pay extra.
It’s an FU attitude, perhaps an online petition here on TM to forward to the Morgan management saying if you want to sell your cars then we the buyers expect you to support the people who service and repair them.
How good can this “Portal” be anyway? If it’s run in the same slapdash way the so called owners handbook is produced it would be next to useless.
