head excursion requirement when 

tested with the weighted 6 year-old 

dummy, also has the potential for 

increased forward movement of the 

head in excess of the required limit in 

the event of a top tether failure. We note 

that, as the Britax explanation makes 

clear, the head excursion limit (720 mm) 

was exceeded in one out of the three 

tests the company performed. In that 

test, the tether hook opened. In the other 

two tests performed by Britax, the tether 

hook did not open and the head 

excursions were substantially less. 

Furthermore, lower biomechanical 

responses would naturally occur as a 

result of increased excursion due to a 

top tether failure. 

Finally, NHTSA agrees with 

Advocates that granting this petition 

would send a mixed message to the 

public regarding the use of tethers and 

would be contradictory to NHTSA’s 

mission to promote greater use of 

LATCH and tether. 

In consideration of the foregoing, 

NHTSA has decided that the petitioner 

has not met its burden of persuasion 

that the noncompliance described is 

inconsequential to motor vehicle safety. 

Accordingly, Britax’s petition is hereby 

denied, and the petitioner must notify 

according to 49 U.S.C. 30118 and 

remedy according to 49 U.S.C. 30120. 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120; 

delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.50 and 

501.8.
