## NHTSA's summary

"WE WOULD LIKE TO REMIND DEALERS THAT EMISSION LABEL PART NUMBER INFORMATION IS A VALUABLE COMMODITY WHICH MUST BE PROTECTED. CALIFORNIA AND THE EPA REQUIRES SUBARU AND ITS DEALERS TO TIGHTLY CONTROL THE DISTRIBUTION PROCESS OF THE REPLACEMENT VECI LABELS TO ENSURE THAT ALL VEHICLES ARE RECEIVING THE CORRECT AFFIXED LABEL. SUBARU REPLACEMENT LABELS ARE NOT AVAILABLE OVER THE COUNTER IN ORDER TO TIGHTLY CONTROL THE ISSUANCE OF REPLACEMENT LABELS. DEALERS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THERE ARE STRICT CALIFORNIA AND FEDERAL PENALTY PROVISIONS FOR IMPROPER APPLICATIONS. WHILE DEALERS HAVE ACCESS TO PART CATALOGS SHOWING VECI LABEL PART NUMBERS, DEALERS CAN ONLY OBTAIN REPLACEMENT VECI LABELS BY SUBMITTING AN EMISSION LABEL REQUEST THROUGH A SECURE WEBSITE. WHEN ORDERING THESE LABELS DEALERS MUST CERTIFY THAT, TO THE BEST OF THEIR KNOWLEDGE, THE VIN STATED IN THE ORDER FORM IS THE VEHICLE TO WHICH THE REQUESTED LABELS WILL BE AFFIXED. IF THE LABELS ARE APPLIED BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN AN AUTHORIZED SUBARU DEALER, AN EMISSION LABEL RECEIPT ACKNOWLEDGMENT FORM SHOULD BE COMPLETED AND RETAINED FOR DEALER RECORDS. THIS FORM IS AVAILABLE ON SUBARUNET UNDER EMISSION LABEL REQUEST. REGULATORY CITES: CALIFORNIA MAC\#91\]39 AND AMENDED GCALIFORNIA MOTOR VEHICLE EMISSION CONTROL LABEL SPECIFICATIONSH AND FEDERAL 40 CFR 86001\]35. "
