Type deviation classification (A, B, C) TYPE “A” DEFICIENCY is a deficiency that is an immediate life threatening situation for

individuals occupying the vehicle. TYPE “B” DEFICIENCY is a deficiency other than a Type “A” deficiency, which could become

an eventual life threatening situation if other variables were involved. TYPE “C” DEFICIENCY is a condition resulting from the violation of any part of the standard not

listed as a Type “A” or Type “B.”
