(Hankook) has determined that certain tires that it produced in 2001 through 2006 do not comply with S5.5(h) of 49 CFR 571.139, Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 139, ‘‘New pneumatic radial tires for light vehicles.’’ Hankook 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), Hankook 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 Hankook’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 99,620 passenger car temporary spare tires produced between January 2001 and September 2006. S5.5(h) of FMVSS No. 139 requires that the tires have a sidewall marking ‘‘radial’’ if the tire is a radial ply tire. These tires lack the word ‘‘radial’’ in the sidewall marking. Hankook has corrected the problem that caused these errors so that they will not be repeated in future production. Hankook believes that the noncompliance is inconsequential to motor vehicle safety and that no corrective action is warranted. Hankook states that the noncompliance ‘‘affects consumer information only and does not affect safety of the tires.’’ Hankook further states that the tires comply with all other FMVSS requirements. Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and arguments on this petition. Comments must refer to the docket and notice number cited at the beginning of this notice and be submitted by any of the following methods.
