Condition
The subject vehicles are equipped with a Data Communication Module (DCM) which supports the use of connected service utilities such as
Roadside Assistance, Automatic Collision Notification, and Emergency Assistance (SOS). These connected services are available as a free
trial subscription when the vehicle is purchased. Due to a supplier shipping error, there is a possibility that incorrect, not activated DCMs were
installed in the subject vehicles, which causes connected services to be unavailable.
Remedy
Lexus dealers will replace the DCM with a new one FREE OF CHARGE.

This Limited Service Campaign will be available until March 31, 2033, and is only available at an authorized Lexus dealer.
Covered Vehicles
There are approximately 60 vehicles covered by this Limited Service Campaign. There are no vehicles involved in this Limited Service
Campaign distributed to Puerto Rico.
Owner Letter Mailing Date
Lexus will begin to notify owners in late May 2023. A sample of the owner notification letter has been included for your reference.

Lexus makes significant effort to obtain current guest 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 Limited Service Campaign announcement,
it is the dealership’s responsibility to forward the owner letter to the guest 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 guest satisfaction, Lexus requests that dealers complete this Limited Service Campaign on any new or used vehicles currently in
dealer inventory that are covered by this Limited Service Campaign prior to guest 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 guest that the vehicle is involved
in a Limited Service Campaign.
Lexus expects dealers to use the attached Guest 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 guest when the remedy becomes available.
Keep the completed form on file at the dealership and send a copy to quality_compliance@Lexus.com. In the subject line of the email state
“Disclosure Form 23LD03” 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. The Vehicle Inventory Summary may take up to 4 hours to populate information for newly launched campaigns.
Lexus Certified Used Vehicle
The LCertified 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 a LCertified until all applicable Safety Recalls, Special Service
Campaigns, and Limited Service Campaigns have been completed on that vehicle.

Customer Handling, Parts Ordering, and Remedy Procedures

Parts Ordering Process

have been placed on Manual Allocation Control (MAC) due to potential limited part availability. Please check the CPOR/MAC report on

courses:
• LIC206A – Electrical Repair 1

to select technicians with the above certification level or greater to perform this repair. Carefully review your resources, the technician skill
level, and ability before assigning technicians to this repair. It is important to consider technician days off and vacation schedules to ensure
