The Transportation Recall Enhancement Accountability and Documentation (TREAD) Act was enacted in 2001 to help the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) develop an early warning system to reduce vehicle related crashes, prevent injuries and save lives.
TPMS Legislation - In 2000 6.5 million tires were recalled due to tread separation on automobiles in the US. This prompted President Clinton to sign the first version of the TREAD Act which required Tire Pressure Warning Systems to be implemented on Model Year 2004 automobiles. These were to include all passenger vehicles and light trucks with GWVR of 10,000 lbs and less.
