1. This is a correction to message 5169412, dated 06/18/2025, to correct paragraph 4 of that message. 2. Paragraph 4 of message 5169412 contains an incorrect cash deposit rate for Eku Fren ve Dok. San. A.S. that was not adjusted for the export subsidy offset from the companion countervailing duty investigation (C-489-854) (90 FR 26008). Note that this offset only applies to this Eku Fren ve Dok. San. A.S. because the other companies are currently subject to the provisional measures period. Below is the fully corrected message. 3. On 06/18/2025, Commerce published in the Federal Register (90 FR 25999) its final affirmative determination of sales at less-than-fair-value in the antidumping duty investigation of certain brake drums from the Republic of Turkiye (A-489-853). 4. The merchandise covered by this investigation has changed. The merchandise covered by this investigation is certain brake drums made of gray cast iron, whether finished or unfinished, with an actual or nominal inside diameter of 14.75 inches or more but not over 16.6 inches, weighing more than 50 pounds. Unfinished brake drums are those which have undergone some turning or machining but are not ready for installation. Subject brake drums are included within the scope whether imported individually or with non-subject merchandise (for example, a hub), whether assembled or unassembled, or if joined with non-subject merchandise. When a subject drum is imported together with non-subject merchandise, such as, but not limited to, a drum-hub assembly, only the subject drum is covered by the scope. Subject merchandise also includes finished and unfinished brake drums that are further processed in a third country or in the United States, including, but not limited to, assembly or any other processing that would not otherwise remove the merchandise from the scope of this investigation if performed in the country of manufacture of the subject brake drums. The inclusion, attachment, joining, or assembly of non-subject merchandise with subject drums either in the country of manufacture of the subject drum or in a third country does not remove the subject drum from the scope. Specifically excluded is merchandise covered by the scope of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on certain chassis and subassemblies thereof from the People's Republic of China. See Certain Chassis and Subassemblies Thereof from the People's Republic of China: Antidumping Duty Order, 86 FR 36093 (July 8, 2021) and Certain Chassis and Subassemblies Thereof from the People's Republic of China: Countervailing Duty Order and Amended Final Affirmative Countervailing Duty Determination, 86 FR 24844 (May 10, 2021). The scope also excludes composite brake drums that contain more than 38 percent steel by weight. The merchandise covered by this investigation is classifiable under Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) subheading 8708.30.5020. The merchandise covered by this investigation may be classifiable under HTSUS subheading 8708.30.5090 when entered as part of an assembly. Subject merchandise may also enter under HTSUS subheading 8716.90.5060, 8704.10, 8704.23.01, 8704.32.01, 8704.43.00, 8704.52.00, 8704.60.00, 8708.50.61, 8708.50.6500, 8716.90.5010, 8716.31.00, 8716.39.00, 8716.40.00. Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the merchandise covered by this investigation is dispositive. 5. This proceeding has been assigned case number A-489-853. 6. For imports of certain brake drums from the Republic of Turkiye, CBP shall continue to suspend liquidation of such shipments entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after 01/29/2025 (date suspension first started). Effective 06/18/2025, CBP shall require, for such entries, a cash deposit equal to the margins for the producers and/or exporters listed below: Producer and/or Exporter: Eku Fren ve Dok. San. A.S.

If any entries of this merchandise are exported by a firm other than the producer, then the following instructions apply: A. If the exporter of the subject merchandise does not have its own rate but the producer has its own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the producer's rate. B. Where neither the exporter nor the producer currently has its own rate or the producer is unknown, use the all-others rate of 15.22% percent to establish the cash deposit rate. 8.
