We are aware of your concerns regarding the
new Occupant Classification Safety Systems
that will be found on all popular vehicles by
2006. Katzkin has always taken a proactive
stance on safety matters, especially airbag
safety matters like OCS. We started performing
airbag system testing through 3rd party test
facilities in 1997 and have continually
performed internal and external testing to
ensure that our products meet and exceed the
highest standards.
We have recently completed a broad range of
tests specified by Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 208 to determine if our
leather interiors would affect the performance
of the OCS systems. Those tests demonstrated
that Katzkin Leather Interiors, when properly
installed, DID NOT interfere with the
performance of the Occupant Classification
Safety Systems.
This manual provides the results of our recent
OCS testing, SRS tests and an overview of our
warranty, quality and insurance coverage.
Inside you쫬 also find information that will
help you better understand the most popular
OCS systems. Most importantly, section 2.0
contains the results of tests performed by MGA
Research Laboratories on vehicles with OCS
Systems.
Because we understand your concerns, we are
maintaining our industry leading $51 million
per occurrence insurance policy (see section
4), 3 year/36,000 mile warranty and ISO 9001
manufacturing facility. You can feel confident
selling Katzkin Leather Interiors to your
customers. We have sold over 250,000 interiors
without a single reported airbag system
failure. This success can be attributed to our
world-class manufacturing facility and the
finest restyling facilities in the industry,
like yourself. |
