Receipt of supplemental petitions.

Hitachi Cable America Inc. (HCA), now known as Proterial Cable America, Inc. (PCA), and Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Harley- Davidson) (collectively, "the Petitioners") have determined that certain PVC, Nylon, and "Revised Socket" Nylon brake hose assemblies equipped in certain model year (MY) 2008-2022 Harley-Davidson motorcycles, and also sold to Harley-Davidson dealers as replacement parts, do not fully comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 106, Brake Hoses. The Petitioners filed the appropriate noncompliance reports and subsequently petitioned NHTSA (the "Agency") for a decision that the subject noncompliance is inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle safety. Notice of receipt was first published on April 13, 2023. This document announces receipt of the Petitioners' supplemental petitions.
