Download as PDF lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 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.
