Here’s what will happen. The data will be reviewed and it will be decided at the car passed after all. :eek:

"The test it failed is a front rigid barrier crash, specifically with a 5-foot-tall, 110-pound female in the driver's seat who is not wearing a seat belt."

But, doesn't everyone wear a seat belt?
