1. On 01/26/2026, Commerce issued a preliminary covered merchandise determination which determines whether the following merchandise imported by FEMC LLC's, formerly known as AXN Heavy Duty LLC (AXN) are covered by the scope of the antidumping/countervailing duty orders on certain chassis and subassemblies thereof from the People's Republic of China (A-570-135, C-570-136): (1) The axle beams imported by AXN that can be used on chassis, whether (a) incorporated into an axle assembly by AXN by adding Chinese-origin parts; (b) incorporated into an axle assembly by AXN by adding domestically (i.e., U.S.) sourced parts; (c) incorporated into an axle assembly by AXN by adding a mix of Chinese-origin and domestically sourced parts; and/or (d) not incorporated into an axle assembly by AXN (i.e., as imported); (2) Slider boxes that can be used on chassis, as imported by AXN; (3) Landing gear sets, as imported by AXN; and (4) Any merchandise imported by AXN that can be used on chassis, including, but not limited to, axle beams, slider boxes, and landing gear leg components/landing gear sets, that, even if considered individual components, were imported by AXN "with or for further assembly with a finished or unfinished chassis" by virtue of their intended sale by AXN to manufacturers for use in the production of completed trailers. 2. Specifically, Commerce preliminarily determined that (1) the axle beams imported by AXN that can be used on chassis, regardless if incorporated into an axle assembly via scenarios (1)(a)-(c), are covered merchandise; (2) slider boxes that can be used on chassis, as imported by AXN, are covered merchandise; and (3) landing gear sets that can be used on chassis, as imported by AXN, are covered merchandise because these products are chassis subassemblies and not individual chassis components. Regarding scenario (4), any other merchandise considered individual components, such as the landing gear legs, imported by AXN and entered and sold by themselves would not be considered subject merchandise even if the intended sale is to manufacturers for use in the production of completed trailers. 3. This preliminary covered merchandise determination is applicable only to merchandise imported by FEMC LLC's, formerly known as AXN Heavy Duty LLC. 4. Continue to suspend liquidation of entries of products covered by the determination that are already subject to the suspension of liquidation in accordance with message 5099407, dated 04/09/2025. 5. For all entries of products covered by the determination not already subject to the suspension of liquidation, CBP should suspend liquidation of: (i) shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 04/03/2025, and (ii) shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption prior to the date of initiation of the covered merchandise inquiry but no earlier than 11/04/2021. CBP shall require, for such entries, a cash deposit at the applicable rate(s) in effect on the date of entry. 6. Entries of products covered by paragraphs 4 and 5 should not be liquidated until specific liquidation instructions are issued. Any such entries that are set for liquidation must be unset immediately. 7. In accordance with 19 CFR 351.227(l)(5), this instruction does not affect or otherwise limit CBP's independent authority to take any additional action with respect to the suspension of liquidation or related measures. 8.
