DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Administration 

[Docket No. NHTSA–2017–0062; Notice 2] 

Final Decision That Certain CanadianCertified Vehicles Are Eligible for 

Importation 

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic 

Safety Administration (NHTSA), U.S. 

Department of Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final decision. 

SUMMARY: This document announces a 

final decision by NHTSA that certain 

vehicles that do not comply with all 

applicable Federal motor vehicle safety 

standards (FMVSS), but that are 

certified by their original manufacturer 

as complying with all applicable 

Canadian motor vehicle safety standards 

(CMVSS), are nevertheless eligible for 

importation into the United States. The 

vehicles in question either (1) are 

substantially similar to vehicles that 

were certified by their manufacturers as 

complying with the U.S. safety 

standards and are capable of being 

readily altered to conform to those 

standards, or (2) have safety features 

that comply with, or are capable of 

being altered to comply with, all U.S. 

safety standards. 

DATE: This decision is applicable on 

January 3, 2018. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Neil Thurgood, Office of Vehicle Safety 

Compliance, NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey 

Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590. 

Telephone: (202) 366–0712. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A), a 

motor vehicle that was not originally 

manufactured to conform to all 

applicable FMVSS shall be refused 

admission into the United States unless 

NHTSA has decided, either pursuant to 

a petition from the manufacturer or 

registered importer or on its own 

initiative, (1) that the nonconforming 

motor vehicle is substantially similar to 

a motor vehicle of the same model year 

that was originally manufactured for 

importation into and sale in the United 

States and certified by its manufacturer 

as complying with all applicable 

FMVSS, and (2) that the nonconforming 

motor vehicle is capable of being readily 

altered to conform to all applicable 

FMVSS. Where there is no substantially 

similar U.S. certified motor vehicle, 49 

U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(B) permits a 

nonconforming motor vehicle to be 

admitted into the United States if 


sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES
416 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 2 / Wednesday, January 3, 2018 / Notices 

NHTSA decides that its safety features 

comply with, or are capable of being 

altered to comply with, all applicable 

FMVSS based on destructive test data or 

such other evidence as NHTSA decides 

to be adequate. 

Tentative Decision 

On October 24, 2017, NHTSA 

published a notice in the Federal 

Register announcing that it had made a 

tentative decision that certain motor 

vehicles that are certified by their 

original manufacturer as complying 

with all applicable CMVSS are eligible 

for importation into the United States 

(82 FR 49260). The notice identified 

these vehicles as: 

(a) All passenger cars manufactured 

on or after September 1, 2017, and 

before May 1, 2018, that as originally 

manufactured, comply with FMVSS 

Nos. 138, 201, 206, 208, 213, 214, 225, 

and insofar as it is applicable, with 

FMVSS No. 226; 

(b) All passenger cars manufactured 

on or after May 1, 2018, and before 

September 1, 2022, that as originally 

manufactured, comply with FMVSS 

Nos. 111, 138, 201, 206, 208, 213, 214, 

225, and insofar as it is applicable, with 

FMVSS No. 226; 

(c) All multipurpose passenger 

vehicles, trucks, and buses with a gross 

vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 4,536 

kg (10,000 lb) or less manufactured on 

or after September 1, 2017, and before 

May 1, 2018, that as originally 

manufactured, comply with FMVSS 

Nos. 138, 201, 206, 208, 213, and 214, 

and insofar as they are applicable, with 

FMVSS Nos. 222, 225, and, 226; 

(d) All multipurpose passenger 

vehicles, trucks, and buses with a 

GVWR of 4,536 kg (10,000 lb) or less 

manufactured on or after May 1, 2018, 

and before September 1, 2022, that as 

originally manufactured, comply with 

FMVSS Nos. 111, 138, 201, 206, 208, 

213, and 214, and insofar as they are 

applicable, with FMVSS Nos. 222, 225, 

and 226; and 

(e) All multipurpose passenger 

vehicles, trucks, and buses with a 

GVWR greater than 4,536 kg (10,000 lb) 

manufactured on or after August 1, 

2019, and before September 1, 2022, 

that as originally manufactured, comply 

with FMVSS No. 136 insofar as it is 

applicable. 

The reader is referred to the October 

24 notice for a full discussion of the 

factors leading to the tentative decision. 

The notice included tables that 

summarize the current state of 

harmonization between the CMVSS and 

the FMVSS. For the convenience of the 

reader, those tables are set out below. 

Table 1 is a list of all FMVSS that are 

harmonized to the CMVSS, or for which 

the differences are such that compliance 

with the U.S. standard can be readily 

achieved. Table 2 is a list of all FMVSS
