manual will always be available,
including to subsequent owners or
lessees.
g. Printed owner’s manuals are
available through dealers or online for
customers that desire them.
h. MNA is not aware of any crashes,
injuries, or customer complaints
associated with this condition.
5. MNA submits that all of the safety
information required by the referenced
FMVSS is readily available to the
vehicle operator, consistent with the
safety purpose of the standards. Unlike
the electronic owners’ manuals
described in the 2009 legal
interpretation to Congressman
Goodlatte, which required operators to
use off-vehicle devices to access the
information, MNA vehicles provide
easy, onvehicle access to the required
safety information.
6. Because the information is readily
available to the operator through onvehicle technology, MNA believes that
the fact that this information is not also
provided to operators in paper form is
inconsequential to motor vehicle safety.
MNA concluded by expressing the
belief that the subject noncompliance is
inconsequential as it relates to motor
vehicle safety, and that its petition to be
exempted from providing notification of
the noncompliance, as required by 49
U.S.C. 30118, and a remedy for the
noncompliance, as required by 49
U.S.C. 30120, should be granted.
NHTSA notes that the statutory
provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to
file petitions for a determination of
inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to
exempt manufacturers only from the
duties found in sections 30118 and
30120, respectively, to notify owners,
purchasers, and dealers of a defect or
noncompliance and to remedy the
defect or noncompliance. Therefore, any
decision on this petition only applies to
the subject vehicles that MNA no longer
controlled at the time it determined that
the noncompliance existed. However,
any decision on this petition does not
relieve vehicle distributors and dealers
of the prohibitions on the sale, offer for
sale, or introduction or delivery for
introduction into interstate commerce of
the noncompliant vehicles under their
control after MNA notified them that the
subject noncompliance existed.
(Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120:
delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.95 and
501.8)

Director, Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance.
