TEXT:

Although you were nice enough to answer my questions regarding standard no. 114, I still would like to have some confirmation that a manufacture's compliance with a given NHTSA standard does not necessarily exonerate the manufacture. Is that proposition published in the CFR.

Also, given the scenario we discussed, i.e., the 1987 Ford which allowed the automatic transmission to be shifted while the key was not in the steering column, do you have any other suggestions besides no. 114? In other words, is there some other source of standards that might be more stringent than NHTSA's standards?

Thank you for your anticipated attention to this matter.
