- (a) Vehicles or engines which have been imported, modified and/or FTP tested by a certificate holder pursuant to [§ 85.1505](/cfr/40/85.1505.md) or [§ 85.1509](/cfr/40/85.1509.md) may be inspected and emission tested by EPA throughout the useful lives of the vehicles or engines.
- (b) Certificate holders shall maintain for six years, and provide to EPA upon request, a list of owners of all vehicles or engines imported by the certificate holder under this subpart.
- (c) A certificate holder will be notified whenever the Administrator has determined that a substantial number of a class or category of the certificate holder's vehicles or engines, although properly maintained and used, do not conform to the regulations prescribed under [section 202](/cfr/40/202.md) when in actual use throughout their useful lives (as determined under [section 202(d)](/cfr/40/202.md?p=d)).
