Both telltale lamps will then remain
illuminated during the rest of the
ignition cycle independent of vehicle
speed. When the ignition is
subsequently cycled, both the ESC and
TPMS telltale lamps will re-illuminate.
Depending on the subsequent scenario
of the drive cycle, the two telltale lamps
can behave in different ways. The
nonconforming scenario occurs when
the vehicle is maintained at a speed
range between 6.2–12.5 miles per hour
(mph) for a period of time where the
ESC malfunction logic code could be
cleared from the control system and
cause the ESC and TPMS telltale lamps
to extinguish. If the 6.2–12.5 mph speed
range is maintained for a longer period
of time after the ESC and TPMS telltale
lamps extinguish (about 5 minutes), the
TPMS will recognize the incompatible
tire and set the TPMS malfunction logic
code and re-illuminate the TPMS
telltale lamp. The TPMS telltale lamp
will stay illuminated for as long as the
incompatible tire is mounted,
independent of any ESC malfunctions.
Volkswagen argues that this
noncompliance is inconsequential to
motor vehicle safety for the following
reasons:
1. The TPMS telltale lamp will
immediately re-illuminate if the vehicle
is accelerated above 12.5 mph, and
remain on throughout the ignition cycle
regardless of the vehicles speed.
2. The TPMS telltale lamp would reilluminate within several minutes
(about 5 minutes) if the speed under
12.5 mph and over 6.2 mph was
maintained.
3. The function of the TPMS telltale
lamp given this condition would never
lead to a ‘‘flicker’’ of the light or other
such confusing performance of the
signal except as required in FMVSS No.
138 S4.4(c).
4. Operation of the vehicle with an
incompatible tire for a short distance
under 12.5 mph presents no safety risk.
Given that the TPMS telltale lamp
would re-illuminate promptly upon the
TPMS recognizing the incompatible tire
at a lower speed or upon acceleration,
the chance is insignificant that a driver
might be confused by the signal, or even
notice it.
5. Volkswagen is not aware of any
field or customer complaints regarding
this noncompliance.
Volkswagen also informed NHTSA
that it has corrected the problem that
caused this noncompliance so that it
will not be repeated in future
production.
In summation, Volkswagen believes
that the described noncompliance of its
vehicles to meet the requirements of
FMVSS No. 138 is inconsequential as it
