Summary

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has accepted a petition to allow the importation of 2005-2006 Mercedes Benz SLK class passenger cars manufactured between August 31, 2004 and August 31, 2006, that do not meet all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards, due to their similarity to U.S.-certified models and their potential for modification to meet safety standards.
