Lexus makes significant effort to obtain current customer name and address information from each state through industry resources when
mailing owner letters. In the event your dealership receives a notice for a vehicle that was sold prior to the Special Service Campaign
announcement, it is the dealership’s responsibility to forward the owner letter to the customer who purchased the vehicle.
Please note that only owners of the covered vehicles will be notified. If you are contacted by an owner who has not yet received a notification,
please verify eligibility by confirming through TIS prior to performing repairs. Dealers should perform the repair as outlined in the Technical
Instructions found on TIS.

Dealer Inventory Procedures
New and Used Vehicles in Dealership Inventory (In-Stock Vehicles)
To ensure customer satisfaction, Lexus requests that dealers complete this Special Service Campaign on any new or used vehicles currently
in dealer inventory that are covered by this Special Service Campaign prior to customer delivery. However, if the campaign cannot be
completed (for example, due to remedy parts availability), delivery of a covered vehicle is acceptable if disclosed to the customer that the
vehicle is involved in a Special Service Campaign.
Lexus expects dealers to use the attached Customer Contact and Vehicle Disclosure Form to obtain vehicle buyer information. Dealers are
expected to provide a copy of the completed form, along with the most current FAQ, to the vehicle buyer. Lexus and the dealer may use this
information to contact the customer when the remedy becomes available.
Keep the completed form on file at the dealership and send a copy to [email protected]. In the subject line of the email state
“Disclosure Form JLG” and include the VIN.
NOTE: Dealers can identify if any of their new and used inventory has any open campaigns in the Vehicle Inventory Summary available in
Dealer Daily (https://dealerdaily.lexus.com/). The Vehicle Inventory Summary may take up to 4 hours to populate information for newly
launched campaigns.
L/Certified Vehicles
L/Certified policy prohibits the certification of any vehicle with an outstanding Safety Recall, Special Service Campaign, or Limited Service
Campaign. Thus, no affected units are to be designated, sold, or delivered as L/Certified until all applicable Safety Recalls, Special Service
Campaigns, and Limited Service Campaigns have been completed on that vehicle.
