Air Bag Deactivation

OMB 2127-0588 · DOT/NHTSA.

OMB 2127-0588

This information collection request (ICR) is to request reinstatement with modification of a previously approved information collection associated with the process of obtaining authorization for the installation of retrofit air bag switches. Specifically, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is requesting reinstatement of the ICR with OMB Control No. 2127-0588. 49 CFR part 595, subpart B, establishes the conditions that make it possible for vehicle owners to have their motor vehicles retrofitted with air bag switches by motor vehicle dealers and repair businesses if the owners are, or a user of their vehicle is, a member of one of the enumerated risk groups. This ICR contains two forms: the Request Form for Frontal Air Bag On-Off Switch (“Request Form”) and the Installation of Air Bag On-Off Switch Form (“Installation Form”). The Request Form corresponds to Appendix B of Part 595, which an owner or lessee of a motor vehicle seeking the installation of a retrofit air bag on-off switch must complete and submit to NHTSA. NHTSA will review and grant or deny the request for an air bag switch to be installed. The Installation Form corresponds to Appendix C of Part 595, Subpart B which air bag switch installers must return to NHTSA upon completion of an air bag switch installation. This second form was not included in the previously approved ICR. NHTSA estimates this collection will impact 300 respondents each year and will have a total annual burden of 90 hours and annual labor cost of $1,785.00.

The latest form for Air Bag Deactivation expires 2029-09-30 and is listed under ICR 202606-2127-010.
