The Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability, and Documentation (TREAD) Act (Public Law 106-414) was enacted on November 1, 2000. This Act includes a requirement that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) conduct Early Warning Reporting (EWR) rulemaking to require manufacturers of motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment to submit information, periodically or upon NHTSA's request, that includes claims for deaths and serious injuries, property damage data, communications from customers and others, information on incidents resulting in fatalities or serious injuries from possible defects in vehicles or equipment in the United States or in identical or substantially similar vehicles or equipment in a foreign country, and other information that would assist NHTSA in identifying potential safety-related defects. The intent of this legislation is to provide early warning of such potential safety-related defects.

The proposed program changes because of the rule are; total annual responses changed from 2,355 to 1,228 due to a decrease in the number of vehicle manufactures that will be required to report under the new rule and total estimated annual hours increased from 82,391 to 85,193. This number includes a 29,120 one time increase in burden hours due to rule changes and due to higher reporting thresholds that reduces the number of manufacturers who have to report and consequently a reduction in the amount of information reported. The proposed change to vehicle type, fuel and/or propulsion system type, and four new components to the vehicle EWR reporting for light vehicle manufacturers and one new component for manufacturers of buses, emergency vehicles, and medium/heavy vehicles is likely to create a one-time cost for manufacturers to amend their reporting template and revise their software system to appropriately categorize the data. We estimate this one-time cost to be $4.57M.
