Denial of Motor Vehicle Defect Petition

This notice sets forth the reasons for the denial of a petition submitted by Ms. Claire M. Tieder to NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI), dated January 11, 2004, under 49 U.S.C. 30162, requesting that the agency commence a proceeding to determine the existence of a defect related to motor vehicle safety with respect to the automatic transmission performance of model year (MY) 2004 BMW 3- Series xi all-wheel drive sedans. After a review of the petition and other information, NHTSA has concluded that further expenditure of the agency's investigative resources on the issues raised by the petition does not appear to be warranted. The agency accordingly has denied the petition. The petition is hereinafter identified as DP04-001.
