| 2012-15396 | Guizhou Tyre Corporation; Receipt of Petition for Decision of Inconsequential Noncompliance | Notice | GTC North America, Inc., on behalf of Guizhou Tyre I/E Co. LTD (collectively referred to as "GTC") has determined that certain Samson and Advance brand ST trailer Tires, do not fully comply with paragraph S6.5 (j) of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 119, New pneumatic tires for motor vehicles with a GVWR of more than 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) and motorcycles. GTC has filed an appropriate report dated March 22, 2012, pursuant to 49 CFR Part 573, Defect and Noncompliance Responsibility and Reports. Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and 30120(h) (see implementing rule at 49 CFR Part 556), GTC submitted a petition for an exemption from the notification and remedy requirements of 49 U.S.C. Chapter 301 on the basis that this noncompliance is inconsequential to motor vehicle safety. This notice of receipt of GTC's petition is published under 49 U.S.C. 30118 and 30120 and does not represent any agency decision or other exercise of judgment concerning the merits of the petition. Equipment involved: Affected are approximately 4,291 size ST235/ 85R16/14 ply Samson and Advance brand ST Trailer Tires manufactured from December 4, 2011 through March 31, 2012. 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, these provisions only apply to the subject 4,291 \1\ tires that GTC no longer controlled at the time it determined that the noncompliance existed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | 2012-06-25 | 2012 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2012/06/25/2012-15396/guizhou-tyre-corporation-receipt-of-petition-for-decision-of-inconsequential-noncompliance | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-06-25/pdf/2012-15396.pdf | Transportation Department; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration | 492,345 | GTC North America, Inc., on behalf of Guizhou Tyre I/E Co.
