Summary

Retailer Engagement for Takata Awareness INFINITI is committed to the safety and security of its clients and their passengers. As you are likely aware, INFINITI has initiated multiple field actions to execute the Takata Airbag Recall in accordance with the schedule set by the federal safety agency. INFINITI has employed a variety of methods to reach affected clients to increase repair completion. However, your help is needed to raise awareness to remedy the approximately one hundred twenty thousand vehicles that remain unrepaired. This is a serious issue and we need everyone?s help to further increase recall awareness. INFINITI is asking all retailers to provide their employees with instructions on how to identify vehicles affected by the Takata airbag recall and encourage them to help draw an affected owner?s attention to this danger. Your employee?s actions could save someone?s life or prevent a significant injury. Supporting Materials To assist with this request, each retailer will receive thirty ?Takata Airbag Recall Alert Cards? by December 5, 2018. Each ?Alert Card? has eight (8) individual tear off cards (written in English and Spanish) that can be distributed to owners to make them aware of how to check their vehicle for an open Takata recall, and of the importance of having the repair performed. To facilitate identification of affected vehicles, your employees can download the free Airbag Recall App from the App Store or Google Play. This app will work for any brand vehicle affected by the Takata recall, and will inform your employees if any of the affected vehicles listed below have an open Takata recall.
