Dear Mr. McLain:#Thank you for your letter of April 26, 1968 concerning certification of brake hoses. Hydraulic brake hoses for use in passenger cars and multipurpose passenger vehicles manufactured after January 1, 1968 must comply with Federal Motor Vehicles Safety Standard No. 106, Hydraulic Brake Hoses - Passenger Cars and Multipurpose Passenger Vehicles.#At the time of delivery of the completed brake hose assembly to a distributer or dealer the manufacturer of the completed brake hose assembly must certify that it complies with the applicable standard. In the case of equipment such as the brake hose assembly the certification may be in the form of a label or tag on the completed brake hose assembly delivered.#For your information I have enclosed a copy of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, the notice published in the *Federal Register* concerning certification and a copy of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966. Particular attention should be paid to the sections 108 and 114 of the Act.#I hope this letter and the enclosures are adequately responsive to your questions. #Sincerely,Robert M O'Mahoney,Assistant Chief Counsel;
