Incomplete Vehicle Certification
An Incomplete Vehicle Document is shipped with the
vehicle, certifying that the vehicle is not complete. See
Figure 2–1. In addition, affixed to the driver's side door
frame or edge is an Incomplete Vehicle Certification
label. See Figure 2–2.
. For further information on Vehi-
cle Certification and Identification, see APPENDIX A
“VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION.”
NOTE: These documents list the FMVSS reg-
ulations that the vehicle complied with when it
left the build plant. You should be aware that if
you modify or alter any of the components or
systems covered by these FMVSS regula-
tions, it is your responsibility as the Final
Stage Manufacturer to ensure that the com-
plete vehicle maintains compliance with the
particular FMVSS regulations when you com-
plete your modifications.
As the Final Stage Manufacturer, you should retain the
Incomplete Vehicle Document for your records. In addi-
tion, you should record and retain the manufacturer and
serial number of the tires on the vehicle. Upon comple-
tion of the vehicle (installation of the body and any other
modifications), you should affix your certification label
to the vehicle as required by Federal law. This tag iden-
tifies you as the “Final Stage Manufacturer” and certi-
fies that the vehicle complies with Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards. (See Figure 2–2.
