This research note describes the methodology NHTSA's National Center for Statistics and Analysis used in the Tire Pressure Special Study (TPSS) including sampling design, data collection methodology, and estimation procedures. In 2000, Congress passed the Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability, and Documentation (TREAD) Act. Section 12 of this act directed the Department of Transportation to complete a rulemaking within one year. This rulemaking requires implementation of a warning system in new motor vehicles indicating under-inflated tires.
