Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 99 / Tuesday, May 23, 2023 / Notices
This notice of receipt of Premiori’s
petition is published under 49 U.S.C.
30118 and 30120 and does not represent
any agency decision or another exercise
of judgment concerning the merits of the
petition.
II. Tires Involved: Approximately 8
Premiorri Solazo passenger car tires size
175/65R14 82H, manufactured between
February 7, 2021, and April 30, 2021,
are potentially involved.
III. Noncompliance: Premiori explains
that the noncompliance is due to a mold
error in which the subject tires do not
have the required DOT symbol and the
full or partial tire identification number
(TIN) on one of the two sidewalls and
therefore, do not comply with paragraph
S5.5(a) of FMVSS No. 139. The tires do
have the required DOT symbol (and
TIN) on the other sidewall.
IV. Rule Requirements: Paragraphs
S5.5(a) and S5.5.1 of FMVSS No. 139
include the requirements relevant to
this petition. Paragraph S5.5(a) requires
each tire to be marked on each side wall
with the symbol DOT, which constitutes
a certification that the tire conforms to
applicable FMVSSs. Paragraph S5.5.1
requires each tire to be labeled with the
TIN required by 49 CFR part 574 on the
intended outboard sidewall of the tire.
Specifically, either the TIN or partial
TIN, containing all characters in the
TIN, except for the date code and, at the
discretion of the manufacturer, any
optional code, must be labeled on the
other sidewall of the tire.
V. Summary of Premiori’s Petition:
The following views and arguments
presented in this section, ‘‘V. Summary
of Premiori’s Petition,’’ are the views
and arguments provided by Premiori.
They have not been evaluated by the
Agency and do not reflect the views of
the Agency. Premiori describes the
subject noncompliance and contends
that the noncompliance is
inconsequential as it relates to motor
vehicle safety.
On February 17, 2022, Premiori says
it received an information request from
NHTSA regarding the subject
noncompliance. As a result of the
information request from NHTSA,
Premiori inspected the molds used for
the subject tires. Premiori’s
investigation found that one (1) of the
four molds that were used for the
subject tires did not have the DOT
marking or TIN on one sidewall.
Premiori provided information showing
that the subject tires met all other
labeling requirements of S5.5(a)–(i),
including the symbol DOT a full TIN on
one of the two sidewalls. Premiori
believes that there are no safety risks
associated with the affected tires stated
that they have ‘‘taken corrective actions
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:24 May 22, 2023
Jkt 259001
regarding this noncompliance’’ and all
four (4) tire molds now are fully
compliant.
Premiori concludes by stating its
belief that the subject noncompliance is
inconsequential as it relates to motor
vehicle safety and 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 tires that Premiori 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 tires
under their control after Premiori
notified them that the subject
noncompliance existed.

delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.95 and
501.8)
