No,

The players have been lobbying, but they are a grain of sand in the Washington swamp dominated by the NRA, Koch brothers, etc.

Ford can and will offer a certified package when it is needed. Even GM let their certification lapse so understand this is not much of a profit center for the Big Three, it is bragging rights and promotion.
