Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 59704-59705 [2012-24079]

Download as PDF 59704 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 189 / Friday, September 28, 2012 / Notices noncompliance and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore, these provisions only apply to the subject 60,509 3 vehicles that MNAO no longer controlled at the time it determined that the noncompliance existed. Noncompliance: MNAO explains that the noncompliance is that certain Mazda brand motor vehicles sold in Puerto Rico were not delivered with instructions on the use of child restraint tether anchorages written in English. The instructions were only provided in Spanish as part of the Spanish language version of the vehicle owner’s manual provided with the vehicles at first sale. No English version owner’s manuals were provided. Rule Text: Paragraph S4.1 of FMVSS No. 225 requires in pertinent part: S4.1 Each Tether anchorage and each child restraint anchorage system installed, either voluntarily or pursuant to this standard, in any new vehicle manufactured on or after September 1, 1999, shall comply with the configuration, location, marking and strength requirements of this standard. The vehicle shall be delivered with written information, in English, on how to appropriately use those anchorages and systems. srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Summary of MNAO’s Analysis and Arguments: MNAO believes that while the noncompliant motor vehicles were delivered to Puerto Rico with Owners Manuals written only in the Spanish language and did not include a written version in the English language as required by FMVSS No. 225, it is inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle safety for the following reason: 1. All affected owner’s manuals contain accurate Spanish translations of the information. 2. In Puerto Rico, Spanish is the universally prevalent language. According to a U.S. Census done by the Census Bureau in 2010, 95.7% of the Puerto Rico’s population speaks Spanish as their primary language. 3. NHTSA also has a long history of encouraging the dissemination of product information in languages that are useful for the vehicle owners. (See example https://isearch.nhtsa.gov/files/ 8047.html) 4. English Owners manuals for Mazda motor vehicles manufactured on or after 3 MNAO’s petition, which was filed under 49 CFR Part 556, requests an agency decision to exempt MNAO as a vehicle manufacturer from the notification and recall responsibilities of 49 CFR Part 573 for the 60,509 affected vehicles. However, a decision on this petition will not relieve vehicle distributors and dealers of the prohibitions on the sale, offer for sale, introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce of the noncompliant vehicles under their control after MNAO notified them that the subject noncompliance existed. VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:28 Sep 27, 2012 Jkt 226001 2002 can be downloaded from MNAO’s Web site or upon request through MNAO dealerships and is available for customers in Puerto Rico free of charge. 5. MNAO has not received any complaints or claims in Puerto Rico with regards to the language of the Owner’s manuals. MNAO has additionally informed NHTSA that it has corrected future production and that all other motor vehicle owner’s manuals are correct. In summation, MNAO believes that the described noncompliance of its motor vehicle owner’s manuals is inconsequential to motor vehicle safety, and that its petition, to exempt it from providing recall notification of noncompliance as required by 49 U.S.C. 30118 and remedying the recall noncompliance as required by 49 U.S.C. 30120 should be granted.
