In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), this notice announces that the Information Collection Request (ICR) summarized below is being submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. The ICR describes the nature of the information collection and its expected burden. NHTSA is seeking approval for a reinstatement of a previously approved ICR titled "Defect and Noncompliance Reporting and Notification", which covers requirements for manufacturers to notify NHTSA and owners, purchasers, dealers, and distributors of safety-related defects and failures to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) in products they manufactured. The ICR also covers additional reporting, notification, and recordkeeping requirements related to those notifications and the ensuing free remedy programs. A Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period requesting public comments was published on October 26, 2023. No comments were received.
