Preliminary Theft Data; Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 
Department of Transportation.

ACTION: Publication of preliminary theft data; request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document requests comments on data about passenger motor 
vehicle thefts that occurred in calendar year (CY) 2004 including theft 
rates for existing passenger motor vehicle lines manufactured in model 
year (MY) 2004. The preliminary theft data indicate that the vehicle 
theft rate for CY/MY 2004 vehicles (1.83 thefts per thousand vehicles) 
decreased by 0.54 percent from the theft rate for CY/MY 2003 vehicles 
(1.84 thefts per thousand vehicles).
    Publication of these data fulfills NHTSA's statutory obligation to 
periodically obtain accurate and timely theft data, and publish the 
information for review and comment.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before July 3, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NHTSA administers a program for reducing 
motor vehicle theft. The central feature of this program is the Federal 
Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard, 49 CFR Part 541. The standard 
specifies performance requirements for inscribing or affixing vehicle 
identification numbers (VINs) onto certain major original equipment and 
replacement parts of high-theft lines of passenger motor vehicles.
    The agency is required by 49 U.S.C. 33104(b)(4) to periodically 
obtain, from the most reliable source, accurate and timely theft data, 
and publish the data for review and comment. To fulfill the Sec.  
33104(b)(4) mandate, this document reports the preliminary theft data 
for CY 2004 the most recent calendar year for which data are available.
    In calculating the 2004 theft rates, NHTSA followed the same 
procedures it used in calculating the MY 2003 theft rates. (For 2003 
theft data calculations, see 69 FR 53354, September 1, 2004). As in all 
previous reports, NHTSA's data were based on information provided to 
the agency by the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) of the 
Federal Bureau of Investigation. The NCIC is a governmental system that

[[Page 25804]]

receives vehicle theft information from nearly 23,000 criminal justice 
agencies and other law enforcement authorities throughout the United 
States. The NCIC data also include reported thefts of self-insured and 
uninsured vehicles, not all of which are reported to other data 
sources. The 2004 theft rate for each vehicle line was calculated by 
dividing the number of reported thefts of MY 2004 vehicles of that line 
stolen during calendar year 2004, by the total number of vehicles in 
that line manufactured for MY 2004, as reported by manufacturers to the 
Environmental Protection Agency.
    The preliminary 2004 theft data show a decrease in the vehicle 
theft rate when compared to the theft rate experienced in CY/MY 2003. 
The preliminary theft rate for MY 2004 passenger vehicles stolen in 
calendar year 2004 decreased to 1.83 thefts per thousand vehicles 
produced, a decrease of 0.54 percent from the rate of 1.84 thefts per 
thousand vehicles experienced by MY 2003 vehicles in CY 2003. For MY 
2004 vehicles, out of a total of 231 vehicle lines, 22 lines had a 
theft rate higher than 3.5826 per thousand vehicles, the established 
median theft rate for MYs 1990/1991 (See 59 FR 12400, March 16, 1994). 
Of the 22 vehicle lines with a theft rate higher than 3.5826, 20 are 
passenger car lines, one is a multipurpose passenger vehicle line, and 
one is a light-duty truck line.
    The preliminary MY 2004 theft rate reduction is consistent with the 
general decreasing trend of theft rates over the past eleven years as 
indicated by Figure 1.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP02MY06.010

    The agency believes that the theft rate reduction could be the 
result of several factors including the increased use of standard 
antitheft devices (i.e., immobilizers), vehicle partsmarking, increased 
and improved prosecution efforts by law enforcement organizations and 
increased public awareness measures that may have contributed to the 
overall reduction in vehicle thefts.
    In Table I, NHTSA has tentatively ranked each of the MY 2004 
vehicle lines in descending order of theft rate. Public comment is 
sought on the accuracy of the data, including the data for the 
production volumes of individual vehicle lines.
    Comments must not exceed 15 pages in length (49 CFR Part 553.21). 
Attachments may be appended to these submissions without regard to the 
15 page limit. This limitation is intended to encourage commenters to 
detail their primary arguments in a concise fashion.
    If a commenter wishes to submit certain information under a claim 
of confidentiality, three copies of the complete submission, including 
purportedly confidential business information, should be submitted to 
the Chief Counsel, NHTSA, at the street address given above, and two 
copies from which the purportedly confidential information has been 
deleted should be submitted to Dockets. A request for confidentiality 
should be accompanied by a cover letter setting forth the information 
specified in the agency's confidential business information regulation. 
49 CFR Part 512.
    All comments received before the close of business on the comment 
closing date indicated above for this document will be considered, and 
will be available for examination in the docket at the above address 
both before and after that date. To the extent possible, comments filed 
after the closing date will also be considered. Comments on this 
document will be available for inspection in the docket. NHTSA will 
continue to file relevant information as it becomes available for 
inspection in the docket after the closing date, and it is recommended 
that interested persons continue to examine the docket for new 
material.
    Those persons desiring to be notified upon receipt of their 
comments in the rules docket should enclose a self-addressed, stamped 
postcard in the envelope with their comments. Upon receiving the 
comments, the docket

[[Page 25805]]

supervisor will return the postcard by mail.
    Privacy Act: Anyone is able to search the electronic form of all 
comments received into any of our dockets by the name of the individual 
submitting the comment (or signing the comment, if submitted on behalf 
of an association, business, labor union, etc.). You may review DOT's 
complete Privacy Act Statement in the Federal Register published on
