FMVSS No. 301 Fuel System Integrity

Current understanding

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 301 governs fuel system integrity requirements for motor vehicles, aiming to reduce deaths and injuries from post-crash fuel leakage and fires. NHTSA periodically updates the standard; a 2026 final rule removed obsolete requirements following notice-and-comment rulemaking, without altering the core safety performance criteria.
