[Docket No. NHTSA–2005–22969; Notice 1]
Nissan North America, Inc., Receipt of
Petition for Decision of
Inconsequential Noncompliance
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan)
has determined that certain vehicles
PO 00000
Frm 00102
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
that it produced in 2005 do not comply
with S4.2.2 of 49 CFR 571.114, Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS)
No. 114, ‘‘Theft protection.’’ Nissan has
filed an appropriate report pursuant to
49 CFR part 573, ‘‘Defect and
Noncompliance Reports.’’
Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h), Nissan has petitioned for an
exemption from the notification and
remedy requirements of 49 U.S.C.
Chapter 301 on the basis that this
noncompliance is inconsequential to
motor vehicle safety.
This notice of receipt of Nissan’s
petition is published under 49 U.S.C.
30118 and 30120 and does not represent
any agency decision or other exercise of
judgment concerning the merits of the
petition.
Affected are a total of approximately
3400 Nissan Maximas produced
between March 29, 2005 and May 26,
2005. S4.2.2 of FMVSS No. 114 requires
that,
(a) Notwithstanding S4.2.1, provided that
steering is prevented upon the key’s removal,
each vehicle specified therein may permit
key removal when electrical failure of this
system (including battery discharge) occurs
or may have a device which, when activated,
permits key removal. The means for
activating any such device shall be covered
by a non-transparent surface which, when
installed, prevents sight of and activation of
the device. The covering surface shall be
removable only by use of a screwdriver or
other tool.
(b) Notwithstanding S4.2.1, each vehicle
specified therein may have a device which,
when activated, permits moving the
transmission shift lever from ‘‘park’’ after the
removal of the key. The device shall either
be operable:
(1) By the key, as defined in S3; or
(2) By another means, provided that
steering is prevented when the key is
removed from the ignition, and provided that
the means for activating the device is covered
by a non-transparent surface which, when
installed, prevents sight of and activation of
the device. The covering surface shall be
removable only by use of a screwdriver or
other tool.
The subject vehicles are equipped
with an override device but the steering
wheel may not lock under some
circumstances when the key is removed.
Nissan believes that the
noncompliance is inconsequential to
motor vehicle safety and that no
corrective action is warranted. Nissan
states that the vehicles are equipped
with an engine control module
immobilizer system which prevents
forward movement of the vehicle if the
key is not present.
Nissan points out that NHTSA
recently granted inconsequential
noncompliance petitions for similar
noncompliances by Bentley (69 FR
