Check Service COMM to confirm campaign eligibility.
INTRODUCTION
Infiniti has determined that an on-board diagnostics non-compliance exists due to a software programming issue on some 2012 M Hybrid vehicles such that, in some situations, the MIL may illuminate when no malfunction exists. To correct this condition, Infiniti is conducting a Voluntary Emissions Recall Campaign to reprogram the Engine Control Module at no charge for parts or labor. If this repair is not completed, affected vehicles may not pass an emission inspection or I/M smog check test.
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
Infiniti has assigned identification number R1111 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communications and documentation of any nature dealing with this campaign.
DEALER RESPONSIBILITY
It is the dealers responsibility to check Service Comm for the campaign status on each vehicle falling within the range of this voluntary emissions recall which for any reason enters the service department. This includes vehicles purchased from private parties or presented by transient (tourist) owners and vehicles in a dealers inventory.
IMPORTANT
Attention California Dealers: California law prohibits owners from renewing their California registration if emissions related recall work has not been performed. California dealers are now required to issue a proof of correction certificate to vehicle owners upon completion of emission related recall work. Please fill out one of the campaign completion forms for each owner that has this campaign performed. Instruct owners to keep this certificate unless they are requested to mail it to the DMV.
A sample of the form is shown below.
NOTE:
These forms are available from Nissan Publications at no charge (item number CAEMRC-2/09).
