Consumer Description

THE TELEMATICS CONTROL UNIT MY 2014 INFINITI Q50 WILL BE INOPERABLE BY 12/31/16 BASED ON A NOTICE RECEIVED FROM INFINITI ON 12/6/16. INFINITI HAS INDICATED THIS IS BECAUSE ATT WILL DISCONTINUE SUPPORT OF THE 2G TECHNOLOGY THE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO USE. HOWEVER, ATT ANNOUNCED 2G SUPPORT WOULD SUNSET TIMELINE WAY BACK IN 2012 - IN THIS PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT (HTTPS://WWW.SEC.GOV/ARCHIVES/EDGAR/DATA/732717/000073271712000073/Q2_10Q.HTM). WITHOUT A FUNCTIONING TCU, THE VEHICLE WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO PROVIDE AUTOMATIC COLLISION NOTIFICATION - WHICH WAS A FEATURE ADVERTISED ON THE VEHICLE. INFINITI WILL RESTORE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE TCU AFTER PAYMENT OF $299. GIVEN INFINITI WAS AWARE (OR SHOULD HAVE BEEN) 2G SUPPORT WOULD IMMINENTLY BE STOPPED, THIS FIX SHOULD BE MADE VIA A SERVICE CAMPAIGN/RECALL.
