Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 174 / Monday, September 13, 2021 / Notices 50951 

intended for retreading. The concern for 

service personnel related to steel carcass 

construction is not relevant for this tire 

line. 

2. Corrective Measures 

a. Upon identification of the 

mismarking, MNA instituted a block on 

the affected sku. A total of 782 tires 

were captured and retained in MNA 

inventory. These tires will be repaired 

to display the correct single ply 

marking, or they will be scrapped. 

b. The tire specification drawing has 

been corrected and the mold plate has 

been updated to show the correct single 

ply marking. All tires currently being 

produced have the correct marking. 

3. Prior NHTSA Decisions 

MNA states that NHTSA has 

concluded in other petitions related to 

the number of plies marking that this 

type of noncompliance is 

inconsequential to safety. Examples of 

prior decisions include: 

• Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd., 83 

FR 13002 (March 26, 2018) 

• Continental Tire the Americas, LLC, 

83 FR 36668 (July 30, 2018) 

• Cooper Tire & Rubber Company, 82 

FR 17075 (April 7, 2017) 

• Hankook Tire America Corp., 79 FR 

30688 (May 28, 2014) 

• Bridgestone Americas Tire 

Operations, LLC, 78 FR 47049 (August 

2, 2013). 

MNA concludes by again contending 

that the subject noncompliance is 

inconsequential as it relates to motor 

vehicle safety, and that 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, 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 MNA 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 MNA notified 

them that the subject noncompliance 

existed.
