ACTION: Grant of petition to modify an exemption of a previously approved antitheft device. AGENCY: On February 2, 2009, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) granted in full Mitsubishi Motors R&D (Mitsubishi) of America’s petition for an exemption from the Federal Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard (theft prevention standard) for its Mitsubishi Outlander vehicle line beginning in model year (MY) 2011. On November 12, 2012, the agency granted Mitsubishi’s first petition to modify its previously approved exemption for the Outlander vehicle line beginning with MY 2014. On August 1, 2019, Mitsubishi submitted a second petition to modify its previously approved exemption for the Outlander vehicle line beginning with MY 2022. On February 17, 2021, Mitsubishi submitted a third petition to modify its previously approved exemption for a confidential variant of the Outlander vehicle line beginning with MY 2023. Mitsubishi also requested confidential treatment for specific information in its petition. Therefore, no confidential information provided for purposes of this notice has been disclosed. DATES: The modification granted by this notice is effective beginning with the 2023 MY. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Carlita Ballard, Office of International Policy, Fuel Economy and Consumer Programs, NHTSA, West Building, W43–439, NRM–310, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590. Ms. Ballard’s phone number is (202) 366– 5222. Her fax number is (202) 493–2990. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 2, 2009, NHTSA published in the Federal Register a notice granting in full a petition from Mitsubishi for an exemption from the parts-marking requirements of the Theft Prevention Standard (49 CFR 541) for the Outlander vehicle line beginning with its MY 2011 vehicles (see 74 FR 5891). Mitsubishi equipped the MY 2011 Outlander vehicles with a passive, transponderbased, electronic engine immobilizer device and an audible and visible alarm. SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00120 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 49091 On August 6, 2012, Mitsubishi submitted a petition to modify the previously approved exemption for the Outlander vehicle line. On November 28, 2012 (see 77 FR 71030), the agency granted the petition for modification of the previously granted exemption for the Outlander vehicle line beginning with its MY 2014 vehicles. On August 1, 2019, Mitsubishi submitted a second petition to modify the previously approved exemption for the Outlander vehicle line. On May 11, 2020 (see 85 FR 27798), the agency granted the petition for modification of the previously granted exemption for the Outlander vehicle line beginning with its MY 2021 vehicles, although Mitsubishi later notified the agency that the modification would be applied starting with its MY 2022 vehicles. On February 17, 2021, Mitsubishi submitted a third petition to modify the previously approved exemption for a confidential variant of the Outlander vehicle line beginning with its MY 2023 vehicles. Mitsubishi’s submission is a complete petition, as required by 49 CFR part 543.10(d), in that it meets the general requirements contained in 49 CFR part 543.5 and the specific content requirements of 49 CFR part 543.6. Mitsubishi’s petition for modification provides a detailed description and diagram of the identity, design, and location of the components of the antitheft device proposed for installation beginning with the 2023 MY. The details of Mitsubishi’s first three previously-approved antitheft devices are described in the February 2009, November 2012, and May 2020 Federal Register notices granting their petitions for exemption (see 74 FR 5891, 77 FR 71030, and 85 FR 27798), as discussed above. In its third modification for its 2023 vehicles, Mitsubishi stated that it will offer the one touch starting system (OSS 3) as standard equipment for all confidential variants of the Outlander vehicles. The OSS 3 is a transponderbased electronic immobilizer system that starts the engine without using a mechanical key as long as the registered iKey Fob is located in close proximity to the driver. When the ignition switch is pushed to the ‘‘on’’ position, the transceiver module reads the specific ignition key code for the vehicle and transmits an encrypted message containing the key code to the electronic control unit (ECU) or hands free module (HFM), which verifies that the key is correct. The immobilizer then sends a separate encrypted start-code signal to the engine ECU or HFM to allow the driver to start E:\FR\FM\01SEN1.SGM 01SEN1
