Under the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's rule, consumers will be authorized for on-off switches by claiming they meet any of several criteria. Airbag on-off switches must not be installed without the vehicle owner presenting the NHTSA authorization letter. For more information concerning the authorization process and/or the authorization letter call NHTSA's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
