• finding that “[m]otor vehicle safety is an area of traditional State police power” and that “States historically have provided injunctive remedies in the field of vehicle safety”
• applying conflict preemption to preserve a claim for judicially-instituted recall because “the plain meaning of the language in the savings clause ... is that [ ] State law remedies are preserved.”
• “the primary congressional objective behind the MVSA is safety. While legislative history demonstrates a federal interest in uniformity of motor vehicle safety regulation and administration of recalls, uniformity is at best a secondary goal”
