[Docket No. 94-67; Notice 3]
RIN 2127-AE92
Theft Data; Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard
AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
Department of Transportation.
ACTION: Publication of final theft data; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document corrects the final data on thefts of model year
1992 passenger motor vehicles that occurred in calendar year 1992. The
corrections are based on information provided by vehicle manufacturers.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ms. Barbara A. Gray, Office of Market Incentives, NHTSA, 400 Seventh
Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20590. Ms. Gray's telephone number is
(202) 366-1740.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 8, 1994, NHTSA published the
preliminary theft rates for calendar year 1992 passenger motor vehicles
in the Federal Register (59 FR 40409). The public was asked to comment
on the accuracy of the data and to provide final production figures for
individual vehicle lines. NHTSA officials took the precaution of
contacting individual manufacturers by telephone, asking them to submit
in writing any necessary corrections of the preliminary data. Ten
manufacturers provided written corrections. Using all written comments
to make necessary corrections to the data, NHTSA published on November
29, 1994 (59 FR 61023) the final data on passenger motor vehicle thefts
that occurred in calendar year (CY) 1992.
Subsequently, in a letter dated December 7, 1994, Toyota informed
this agency that: ``Although we had been given the opportunity to
comment on the preliminary theft data . . . we failed to do so.'' With
the letter, Toyota provided final production figures, as they were
reported to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, for 14 model year
(MY) 1992 Toyota passenger motor vehicle lines. In addition, Toyota
informed the agency that the MY 1992 Toyota Land Cruiser, a
multipurpose passenger vehicle, was not subject to coverage under 49
U.S.C. chapter 331 Theft Prevention because the Land Cruiser's gross
vehicle weight rating exceeded the statutory limitation of not more
than 6,000 pounds.
In response to Toyota's letter, NHTSA is making the necessary
corrections to the final theft data. NHTSA took into account all of
Toyota's corrections. As a result of the adjustments, the Toyota Land
Cruiser, previously ranked No. 6 was removed, reducing the number of
vehicle lines listed for CY 1992 from 215 to 214. Changes to the
remaining 14 Toyota lines were: the Toyota 4-Runner, previously ranked
No. 15 with a theft rate of 10.1542, is now ranked No. 16, with a theft
ranking of 9.7346; the Toyota Supra, previously ranked No. 60 with a
theft rate of 5.5556, is now ranked No. 56 with a theft rate of 5.7937;
and the Toyota MR2, previously ranked No. 66, with a theft rate of
5.2381, is now ranked No. 63 with a theft rate of 5.3619.
The Toyota Corolla/Corolla Sport, previously ranked No. 72, with a
theft rate of 5.1778, is now ranked No. 74 with a theft rate of 5.0594;
the Toyota Cressida, previously ranked No. 87, with a theft rate of
4.4737, is now ranked No. 86 with a theft rate of 4.5057; the Toyota
Celica, previously ranked No. 99 with a theft rate of 3.8929, is now
ranked No. 142 with a theft rate of 2.3936; the Toyota Paseo,
previously ranked No. 107, with a theft rate of 3.7162, is now ranked
No. 103, with a theft rate of 3.7430; and the Toyota Tercel, previously
ranked No. 121, with a theft rate of 3.1452, is now ranked No. 118,
with a theft rate of 3.1411.
The Toyota Camry, previously ranked No. 133 with a theft rate of
2.6462, is now ranked No. 130, with a theft rate of 2.6455; the Toyota
Lexus SC, previously ranked 137 with a theft rate of 2.5694, is now
ranked No. 135 with a theft rate of 2.5445; the Toyota Lexus LS,
previously ranked No. 140, with a theft rate of 2.4390, is now ranked
No. 137, with a theft rate of 2.4517; the Toyota Pickup Truck,
previously ranked No. 149, with a theft rate of 2.3149, is now ranked
No. 141, with a theft rate of 2.4175; the Toyota Lexus ES, previously
ranked No. 165, with a theft rate of 1.9067, is now ranked No. 163 with
a theft rate of 1.9286; and the Toyota Previa, previously ranked No.
172, with a theft rate of 1.6972, is now ranked No. 171, with a theft
rate of 1.6993.
This notice also corrects the final production numbers for the
Mazda Navajo. The Mazda Navajo, previously ranked No. 100 with a theft
rate of [[Page 1825]] 3.8601, is now ranked No. 166 with a theft rate
of 1.8474.
The following corrected list represents NHTSA's recalculation of
theft rates for 1992 passenger motor vehicle lines. This list is
intended only to inform the public of calendar year 1992 motor vehicle
thefts of model year 1992 vehicles, and does not have any effect on the
obligations of regulated parties under 49 U.S.C. chapter 331.
