The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) received a petition to allow the importation of 1997 Jeep Wrangler vehicles that did not originally meet U.S. safety standards. The petitioner, Wallace Environmental Testing Laboratories, claims the non-U.S. certified vehicles are substantially similar to U.S. versions and can be modified to meet the required safety standards. Public comments on the petition are invited by February 3, 2021.
Simple Explanation
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is thinking about letting some old Jeep cars from 1997 come into the country. These Jeeps need a few changes to be safe, and a company says they can make those changes. People can say what they think about this idea until February 3, 2021.
