NHTSA corrects a typo in seat belt anchor rules
/ 1 min read
Table of Contents
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a minor correction to a rule published earlier this month regarding Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 210, which covers seat belt assembly anchorages. The original document contained an error in how it described the specific sections of the code being updated.
Why it matters: This correction matters only to people who need to read the exact legal text of the rule, such as compliance officers at auto companies or lawyers reviewing regulatory history. For everyone else, there is no change in how seat belts are made or used. The safety standards themselves have not changed; only the description of which parts were edited has been fixed.
Who it affects
- Auto manufacturers and suppliers who must comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 210
This correction was issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration within the Department of Transportation, as detailed in the Federal Register on June 9, 2026. You should check the original document if you need the exact legal language for compliance purposes.
