Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 54 / Tuesday, March 23, 2021 / Notices
Third, the subject assemblies
themselves have characteristics that
discourage incorrect installation.
Because the subject seat belts are not
universal type seat belts, they are
intended to be used to replace specific
seat belts in specific seating positions.
Thus, the installation procedure is the
reverse of part removal. Further, Toyota
believes that it is unlikely that the
subject seat belts can be installed
properly in an incorrect seating
position.
All of the Tokai Rika Mexico seat belt
assemblies are intended to be used as
replacement equipment for the model
year (MY) 2020 Corolla rear seat. Toyota
determined that these seat belt
assemblies cannot be properly installed
in any of the other MY 2020 Corolla
seating positions and are not used on
any other Toyota or Lexus models.
Concerning the Joyson Safety Systems
seat belt assemblies, based on the audits
Toyota conducted of the replacement
seat belt assemblies in its parts
distribution centers, Toyota identified
27 different replacement seat belt
assembly models that had incorrect
instruction sheets. While there could be
other variations not identified in these
audits, Toyota determined that the seat
belt assemblies identified in these
audits could not be properly installed in
the location specified by the incorrect
instruction sheet. In addition, the torque
value for structurally mounting the seat
belt assemblies is a standard value and
is correct regardless of which
instruction sheet is used (42Nm).
Because these torque values are
common, even if the technician uses the
torque values from the wrong
installation instruction sheet, the torque
value will still be correct.
For these reasons, it is unlikely that
the subject seat belt assemblies would
be improperly installed.
3. The replacement seat belt
assemblies are intended to replace the
original equipment seat belts. The
owner’s manual for each vehicle
contains the seat belt usage and
maintenance instructions.
It is unlikely that an improper use or
maintenance of a replacement seat belt
would occur as a result of a missing or
incorrect instruction sheet. The affected
seat belt assemblies are designed to
replace the originally equipped seat
belts in specific Toyota vehicles. All of
the vehicle models for which these
replacement seat belt assemblies were
designed were originally equipped with
an owner’s manual that contains usage
and maintenance instructions for these
seat belt assemblies. Thus, the vehicle
owner has access to the usage and
maintenance instructions and would not
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 253001
need to refer to the instruction sheet for
this information.
4. The seat belts comply with all other
requirements of FMVSS No. 209.
The missing or incorrect instruction
sheets have no bearing on the materials
or performance of the replacement seat
belt assembly itself. Thus, the
assemblies continue to meet the other
performance requirements specified in
FMVSS No. 209. There is no impact to
performance, functionality, or occupant
safety.
5. Toyota is unaware of allegations of
missing instruction sheets.
Toyota has searched its records for
allegations of missing instruction sheets
concerning the subject replacement seat
belt assemblies. As of April 23, 2020, no
owner complaints, field reports,
warranty claims, legal claims, or dealer
technical assistance calls concerning the
missing installation instruction sheets
were found.
6. In similar situations, NHTSA has
granted petitions for inconsequential
noncompliance relating to the subject
requirement of FMVSS No. 209.
NHTSA has previously granted at
least seven similar petitions for
inconsequential noncompliance for
missing or incorrect instruction sheets
for certain replacement seat belt
assemblies. These include: FCA US LLC
(84 FR 20948, May 13, 2019); Mitsubishi
Motors North America, Inc., (77 FR
24762, April 25, 2012); Bentley Motors,
Inc. (76 FR 58343, September 20, 2011);
Hyundai Motor Company (74 FR 9125,
March 2, 2009); Ford Motor Company,
(73 FR 11462, March 3, 2008); Mazda
North American Operations (73 FR
11464, March 3, 2008); and Subaru of
America, Inc. (65 FR 67471, November
9, 2000).
Toyota’s complete petition and all
supporting documents are available by
logging onto the Federal Docket
Management System (FDMS) website at
https://www.regulations.gov and by
following the online search instructions
to locate the docket number as listed in
the title of this notice.
Toyota 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
PO 00000
Frm 00100
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
15551
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 equipment that Toyota no longer
controlled at the time it determined that
the noncompliance existed. However,
any decision on this petition does not
relieve equipment distributors and
dealers of the prohibitions on the sale,
offer for sale, or introduction or delivery
for introduction into interstate
commerce of the noncompliant seat belt
assemblies under their control after
Toyota notified them that the subject
noncompliance existed.
