Safety Connect System – Vehicle Location Inaccurate
Limited Service Campaign (Remedy Notice)
[VIN]
Dear Lexus Customer:
At Lexus, we are dedicated to providing vehicles of outstanding quality and value. As part of our continuing efforts to provide superior
customer satisfaction, Lexus is announcing a Limited Service Campaign, which includes your vehicle.
You received this notice because our records, which are based primarily on state registration and title data, indicate that you are the current
owner.
What is the condition?
The Data Communication Module (DCM) in the subject vehicles are equipped with software to identify the location of the vehicle using the
Global Positioning System (GPS) to support features of the Safety Connect system*. Due to incorrect programming in the DCM software,
after November 2nd, 2019, the GPS coordinates for this system will be calculated incorrectly. This will cause the system to use incorrect
vehicle coordinates if one of the system’s features is activated.
* Safety Connect is a subscription-based telematics service that uses Global Positioning System (GPS) data and embedded cellular
technology to provide Automatic Collision Notification, Emergency Assistance, Enhanced Roadside Assistance, and Stolen Vehicle Locator
services to subscribers.
What will Lexus do?
Any authorized Lexus dealer will reprogram the Data Communication Module FREE OF CHARGE to you.
What should you do?
Before you are inconvenienced by this condition, any authorized Lexus dealer will perform the software update FREE OF CHARGE
to you.
Please contact your authorized Lexus dealer to make an appointment to have the software update performed. The remedy will take
approximately two and a half to three hours. However, depending on the dealer’s work schedule, it may be necessary to make your
vehicle available for a longer period of time. This Program will be offered until December 1, 2022, and will only be available at an

authorized Lexus dealer.

Note: This repair is only necessary if the vehicle has an active Safety Connect subscription. If your Safety Connect subscription
is no longer active and you do not intend to renew it at any point in the future, no action is necessary at this time. Lexus
recommends that you save this notice in the glove compartment of your vehicle in case you or a future owner decide to renew
your Safety Connect subscription in the future.
