Summary

Subject: Takata Completion Objectives for Q4 INFINITI is continuing to ask its retailers to urgently help increase customer participation in the Takata recalls to help it achieve 100% customer recall participation for the following vehicles: - 2001 I30 - 2002-04 I35 - 2003-08 FX - 2002-03 QX4 - 2006-10 M Sedan INFINITI expects to upload the next refreshed owner list to DBS around the middle of February. At the time of monthly updates, we reassign owner lists based on retailer buy/sells. We anticipate having this automated within DBS by the end of the fiscal year. This is an extremely serious safety issue and INFINITI is taking significant and unprecedented steps to increase client recall participation but it needs retailer help to achieve its remedy goals. A separate communication will be released later this week informing regional personnel of the requirements for bonus payout in Q4. The Q4 objective is based on the average number of repairs in Q3 multiplied by the number of service days in Q4 (Mon-Sat minus any holidays). Retailer engagement is critical with this effort. It is a company-wide responsibility to make it a priority to replace these dangerous airbag inflators in affected vehicles. Further, increasing recall participation represents significant gross profit opportunity for our retailers. Regional personnel can access current completions via the tableau Takata tracker (https://tableau.na.nissan.biz/#/site/SLSMKG/views/TakataCampaignReport/TakataCampaign?:iid=1). Q4 objectives will be updated in the tableau Takata tracker by the end of the week, but current overall completion rates are included above.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 307 complaints in the airbags category.
