Ford Motor Company, Grant of Petition
for Decision of Inconsequential
Noncompliance
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Grant of Petition.
AGENCY:
The Ford Motor Company
(Ford), has determined that certain
model year 2010 Ford Taurus passenger
cars and certain model year 2010
Lincoln MKT multi-purpose vehicles do
not fully comply with the requirements
of paragraph S6.2 of Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No.
205, Glazing Materials. Ford filed an
appropriate report pursuant to 49 CFR
Part 573, Defect and Noncompliance
Responsibility and Reports, dated
November 12, 2009.
Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h) and the rule implementing
those provisions at 49 CFR part 556,
Ford 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.
Notice of receipt of Ford’s petition
was published, with a 30 day public
comment period, on June 4, 2010, in the
Federal Register (75 FR 31839). No
comments were received. To view the
petition and all supporting documents

Safety Compliance, the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration

Vehicles Involved: Affected are
approximately 15,663 model year 2010
Ford Taurus passenger car models,
manufactured from June 1, 2009,
through October 5, 2009, at Ford’s
Chicago Assembly Plant, and
approximately 3,565 model year 2010
Lincoln MKT multi-purpose vehicle
models, manufactured from June 29,

FMVSS No. 205 relating to windshield
marking.1
Summary of Ford’s Petition: Ford
describes the noncompliance as the
improper location of the ‘‘AS1’’ glazing
marking. The standard requires that the
‘‘AS1’’ glazing marking be located in
close proximity to the official
designated trademark area (lower
portion) of the windshield. However,
Ford said that the ‘‘AS1’’ symbol is
marked in the upper portion of the
windshield; on both sides of the affected
windshields and that the windshields
conform to all other FMVSS No. 205
requirements.
Ford states the basis for why they
believe this noncompliance is
inconsequential to motor vehicle safety
as:
(1) This condition does not present a
risk to motor vehicle safety because the
windshield fully meets the performance
and physical requirements of FMVSS
[No.] 205.
(2) Repair service will be unaffected
because the selection of replacement
windshields is typically done utilizing a
distributor, a catalog, or NAGS [National
Auto Glass Specification] number.
(3) Furthermore, repairers will be able
to determine the appropriate glazing
because the upper portions of the
windshield are properly labeled with
the ‘‘AS1,’’ designation, the glazing is
clearly marked as ‘‘Laminated,’’ and all
other markings required by FMVSS
[No.] 205 are properly labeled.
(4) No other Ford vehicles are affected
by this condition and Ford is not aware
of any field or owner complaints related
to this condition.
Additionally, Ford stated that
Zeledyne discovered the noncompliance
during its trademark content project
study in which its laboratory personnel
noticed that the ‘‘AS1’’ symbol was
missing from the designated trademark
location on the lower corner of the
windshields for the affected vehicles.
Ford also has informed NHTSA that it
has corrected the problem that caused
these errors so that they will not be
repeated in future production.
Supported by the above stated
reasons, Ford believes that the described
FMVSS No. 205 noncompliance 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.
1 Ford additionally notes that the nonconforming
windshields installed in the subject vehicles were
manufactured by Zeledyne, Inc. (Zeledyne), at their
facility located at 7200 W. Centennial Boulevard,
Nashville, TN 37209.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that the FHWA and
other Federal agencies have taken final action actions by issuing
licenses, permits and approvals for the following highway project in
the State of Georgia: The Northwest Corridor (from Akers Mill Road to
Hickory Grove Road on Interstate 75 (I-75) and from I-75 to Sixes Road
on I-575) located in metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. The Selected
Alternative will extend the two-I-75 managed lanes that currently
terminate Akers Mill Road south of the I-75/I-285 interchange. Two
managed lanes would extend north to the I-75/I-575 interchange. A
single managed lane would continue north on I-75 from the I-75/I-575
interchange to just beyond Hickory Grove Road. A single managed lane
would continue north on I-575 from the I-75/I-575 interchange to the
Sixes Road interchange. The facility will include improvements of
approximately 16.8 miles on I-75, 11.3 miles on I-575 and 1.6 miles on
I-285. The facility will be tolled by electronic toll lane (ETL). The
purpose of the project is listed below:
Improve the transportation effectiveness of I-75 and I-575
to accommodate additional travel and to contribute to the improved
performance of the regional highway system;
Provide additional transportation choices or options that
increase the capacity of I-75 and I-575;
Improve the quality of life by improving mobility and
minimizing effects to both natural resources and the built environment;
Improve transportation equity by providing an equitable
distribution of benefits and impacts to all populations; and
Provide cost-effective and affordable transportation
improvements.
The actions by the Federal agencies and the laws under which such
actions were taken are described in the Final Environmental Impact
Statement (FEIS) and the reevaluation of the FEIS for the Northwest
Corridor Project, approved on October 12, 2011 and March 18, 2013
