Summary
Subject: INFORMATION – Takata Recall - Owner Re-notification via UPS and U.S. Mail Details Summary: Starting this week INFINITI is initiating a special delivery re-notification mailing to owners affected by the Takata recall. These 125,383 mailings will occur via United Parcel Service in a UPS Ground envelope and a label with the words “URGENT SAFETY RECALL” in red. Owners residing in Alaska, Hawaii, or using a P.O. Box as their primary address will receive a certified proof of delivery mail from the postal service. Because of COVID-19 recommended practices, owner signatures will be waived, but the special delivery is intended to capture owners’ attention and signal the importance of this repair. These re-notifications, in English and Spanish, will urge clients to contact their retailer for a free recall remedy as soon as possible! INFINITI expects this targeted outreach activity to motivate a higher percentage of clients to complete the Takata recall. Similar initiatives for other manufacturers have seen a significant jump in response rates and completed repairs in the following weeks. We need retailer support to make this effort successful! This notice is being sent to make retailers aware of this mailing initiative so they can prepare their staff to help drive completions, consider any additional outreach, and respond to any questions that arise regarding the legitimacy and urgency of the special notification. What Retailers Should Do: 1.Retailers should stock the necessary parts and make efforts to support the repairs as quickly as possible. INFINITI requests same day or week appointments as much as possible and offer Takata recall services on weekends too if your service department is open. 2.If possible, offer mobile service. Each mobile repair is eligible for $100 incentive on top of parts and labor. Refer to Takata campaign announcements for additional details.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 308 complaints in the airbags category.
