List of 2009 Model Year Vehicles without BTSI
The following is a list of Model Year 2009 vehicles under 10,000 pounds that ARE NOT equipped with Brake Transmission Shift Interlock (BTSI) technology as reported to NHTSA by the vehicle manufacturers. BTSI is a safety technology that is intended to prevent children from accidentally putting a vehicle into gear. The technology forces the driver to have their foot on the brake, in all key positions, when shifting out of park. Vehicle manufacturers may elect to make BTSI available during the model year. Check with your manufacturer.
