DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORT

MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY ACT

Technical Standards Document No. 401, “Interior Trunk Release” — Revision No. 1

Notice is hereby given, pursuant to section 12 of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act and sections 16 and 17 of the Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations, that the Department of Transport has revised Technical Standards Document (TSD) No. 401, “Interior Trunk Release.” This TSD stipulates that passenger cars must be equipped with a trunk release mechanism as of September 1, 2010, and it specifies the requirements that will apply to this mechanism at that time.

TSD No. 401 reproduces the U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 401, which is also called “Interior Trunk Release,” and is incorporated by reference in section 401 of the Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations (MVSR). Revision 1 is being issued in order to bring it into alignment with changes that have been made to the MVSR by the amendment that was published in the Canada Gazette, Part II, on April 2, 2008. Among other things, this amendment added the definition “back door” to the MVSR; consequently, the definition for this term that is in TSD No. 401 has been struck out and a footnote has been added that indicates where the applicable definition may now be found. In addition, the above-mentioned amendment changed the wording of subsection 401(3) so that it refers to the definition in the MVSR rather than, as previously, to S3 of the TSD.

Copies of Revision 1 of TSD No. 401 may be obtained on the Internet at www.tc.gc.ca/RoadSafety/mvstm_tsd/index_e.htm. Any inquiries should be directed to Ghislain Lalime, Regulatory Development Engineer, at the following address: Standards and Regulations Division, Road Safety and Motor Vehicle Regulation Directorate, Department of Transport, 330 Sparks Street, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0N5, 613-998-1959 (telephone), 613-990-2913 (fax), lalimeg@tc.gc.ca (email).
