In Russia will forbid to build the cars preowned mufflers, steering gears, brake components, seat belts and airbags. The relevant amendments to the Customs Union’s technical regulations on safety of wheeled vehicles. The ban will come into force until 2022, by that year the government needs to decide how to monitor the new rules and what penalty to impose for the violation.On the proposed ban, first reported by the magazine “Behind the wheel”, referring to a package of amendments to the technical regulations of the Customs Union on safety of wheeled vehicles. Deputy General Director for technical regulation of the FSUE NAMI (technical developer amendments) Sergey Anikeev confirmed “Kommersant” plans to designate in the document the list of components of vehicles, “re-use which is not allowed”:”These components are critical to ensuring safe riding,— explained “Kommersant” Mr. Anikeev.— Their dismantled from decommissioned vehicles are either exhausted their resources or have been damaged in the accident. To ensure no hidden damage to components, and the presence of fatigue failure is impossible.” A ban on the use of a number of used parts already spelled out in the UN No. 133, “Requirements for safe disposal of vehicles”, the technical regulations need to be aligned with them, explained to “Kommersant” Mr. Anikeev.Preparation of revisions under the guidance of the Ministry of industry and trade of the Russian Federation took three years, told “Kommersant” in the press service of the Eurasian economic Commission (EEC): “it was Necessary to consider the information coming from the business community, scientific and public organizations, other stakeholders”. In the public discussion of the amendments from 21 March to 1 June 2020 ECE received comments from MAZ, AVTOVAZ, KAMAZ, UAZ, Gas, AEB, other companies. Planned a series of conciliatory actions, in which “the business will be given the opportunity to comment on the project,” added the Commission. Because of the changes will take until mid-2022, explain to US.This marks a source familiar with the development of the document: the relevant regulations must be developed after the entry into force of the rules. Note, the current version of the document already contains a number of nominal prohibitions. For example, from December to February is forbidden to drive on summer tires, but sanctions for violation no.Vice-President of the National automobile Union Anton Shaparin, commenting on the document, said that “no master can not understand, the factory is on the car catalyst or cushion replaced or used”. Caught in the forbidden list of the parts “is actively used��outsa repeatedly, including when tuning and individual creativity”, says CEO of the company “Plagiata” Yuri Parkhomenko. “The contents of the car will go up,— he said.— The sector of the market for the sale of used parts will begin to decline. A Holy place is never empty: the Chinese will start selling the new, but poor quality parts instead of prohibited, but quality used. Increase the market of counterfeit spare parts.” “I am confident that this form of amendments to the regulations are unlikely to be taken against them because the mass will be the automobile business, not only Russian but also Belarusian and Kazakh”,— predicts Mr. Saparin.Deputy head of Department of methodology of settlement of losses of the Russian Union of motor insurers (RAMI), Andrey Makletsov speaks of “very common” practice of concluding agreements between the insurers and the car owners when repairing a used used part: “a Lot of vehicles to which it is impossible to find new part — they are not produced and not imported. And what about cars with drive dynamics control layout, which drives our entire far East?” “A required certification system of such products, which will ensure their compliance with safety requirements”, according to the PCA.The demand for used parts will always be, as they are significantly cheaper than new, says the head of the nonprofit partnership of the diagnostic stations of the “Security and transport” (includes 60 operators THEN) Jaroslav Vasichko. “No regulations here will not help,— he said.— In Russia the trade of used spare parts is tied to big business, including insurance. In Europe the cost of spare parts is much lower, while the possible risks of installing new parts to the car owner so much higher that it is, of course, buys a new item, if plans to continue to operate the vehicle”.Ivan Buranov
