Request for Comments on Incompatibilities in Automotive Standards That Apply in Canada, Mexico, and the United States

The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) established an Automotive Standards Council consisting of representatives of Canada, Mexico, and the United States. The Automotive Standards Council is a forum for trilateral consultations on standards-related matters that apply to automotive goods. At its initial meeting, the Automotive Standards Council discussed development of a work plan to try to attain compatibility among the safety and environmental standards in the three countries that apply to motor vehicles, motor vehicle equipment, and non-road engines. This notice solicits public comments to identify instances of incompatibility among the motor vehicle standards of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, and their respective political subdivisions, that have resulted in barriers to trade.
