NHTSA Announces Final Rule on 2016 Light Duty Truck Lines Subject to Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard

Summary

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has determined that there are no new model year 2016 light duty truck lines subject to the parts-marking requirements of the Federal motor vehicle theft prevention standard, as they are either high-theft or have interchangeable major parts with passenger car or MPV lines. The agency also identified vehicle lines exempt from the parts-marking requirements due to the presence of antitheft devices meeting certain statutory criteria.
