This report summarizes a study of the multistage vehicle industry and the procedures used by manufacturers in complying with certain safety standards such as Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) 204, 208, 212, 219, and 301. The study addressed two industry groups: the incomplete vehicle manufacturers, Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Toyota, and the final stage manufacturers. Interviews were conducted with three incomplete vehicle manufacturers, eleven final stage manufacturers, three suppliers to the industry, and the industry associations that represent the final stage manufacturers: The National Truck Equipment Association (NTEA), the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA), and the National Vehicle Conversion Association (NVCA). Findings from these interviews are summarized in a report table.
