Both Infiniti and your Infiniti retailer are dedicated to
serving all your automotive needs. Your complete satis-
faction is our primary concern. Your Infiniti retailer is
available to assist you with all your automobile sales,
parts and service requirements.
If, however, a situation arises that you believe has not
been addressed to your satisfaction, we ask that you
take the following steps.
STEP 1:
Discuss the situation with the retailer management. If a
problem still exists, contact the retailer’s owner. Your
Infiniti retailer is best equipped to resolve the matter for
you.
STEP 2:
If the concern has still not been addressed to your
satisfaction, please contact our Infiniti Consumer Af-
fairs Department using our toll free number:
1–800–662–6200
The Consumer Affairs Department will ask for the follow-
ing information:
●Your name, address, and telephone number
●Vehicle identification number (on dashboard and
permanent Infiniti Total Ownership program card)
●Date of purchase
●Current odometer reading
●Your Infiniti retailer’s name
●Details of the concern Or you can write to Infiniti with the above information at:

P.O. Box 685003
Franklin, TN 37068-5003
STEP 3:
In the event that you believe Infiniti has been unable to
satisfactorily address the problem, a special automo-
tive complaint resolution program called BBB AUTO
LINE is available to you. The BBB AUTO LINE program is
independently operated by the Council of Better Busi-
ness Bureaus, Inc. (BBB).
For information about the BBB AUTO LINE in your area,
please call us (Infiniti) at the same toll free number
(1-800-662-6200).
We will be happy to provide you with the address and
phone number of your local BBB office or any other
information about AUTO LINE.
Or you may contact the BBB at: BBB Auto Line
Council of Better Business Bureaus, Inc.3033 Wilson Boulevard
Suite 600
Arlington, VA 22203
1 (800) 955-5100 If you call the BBB, its staff will record the details of your
complaint by telephone. They will ask for the same in-
formation as in Step 2.
The BBB AUTO LINE program
consistsof two parts:
mediation and arbitration. The BBB AUTO LINE staff will
attempt to provide suggestions for resolving the prob-
lem during mediation. If a satisfactory resolution has
not been achieved during mediation, you will have the
opportunity to present your case personally before an
impartial arbitrator or thr ee person panel. This is the
arbitration part of AUTO LINE. The arbitrator(s) will make
a decision after the arbitration hearing.
The BBB will, in most cases, send you a final decision in
your case within forty (40) days (plus 7 days, if you have
not contacted Infiniti) unless you delay the process. If
you accept the decision, it will be legally binding on you
and Infiniti. If you do not accept the decision, it will not
be legally binding on you or Infiniti. However, in some
states, if the decision is not accepted, it may be intro-
duced either by you or by Infiniti as evidence in a sub-
sequent court action.

18LIMITED WARRANTY ON GENUINE INFINITI REPLACEMENT PARTS AND GENUINE INFINITI ACCESSORIES1
Page 24 of 51
WHAT IS COVERED?
Infiniti2warrants your Genuine Infiniti Replacement
Battery as described below except as stated under
“What is not covered?”
This warranty covers defects in materials and workman-
ship.
HOW LONG IS THE WARRANTY AND WHAT
WILL INFINITI DO
If your battery becomes unserviceable within the first
24 months of service Infiniti will replace your battery,
including labor, without charge, p roviding the battery
was originally installed in your vehicle by an authorized
Infiniti retailer.
If the battery becomes unserviceable after 24 months of
use, Infiniti will provide a replacement battery at a re-
duced price, charging only for the portion of the life of
the battery actually used. This is called a “pro-rata ad-
justment”. You will be responsible for all labor charges
for the replacement of the battery.
This warranty and the “pro-rata adjustment” end
84 months after the date of the battery’s purchase or
installation, whichever is earlier.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This warranty does not cover:
1. Damage or failure resulting from: ●Accident, theft, fire or freezing.
● Misuse of the battery or vehicle in which it is
installed, including the use in applications for
which the battery was not designed. Proper use
is described in the vehicle’s Owner’s Manual.
● Improper installation or battery charging.
● Vehicle electrical malfunctions not covered by
your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
● Modification or improper repair of the vehicle or
a part of the vehicle.
● Use of parts not equivalent in quality or design
to parts supplied by Infiniti or Infiniti.
● Environmental conditions, including, but not
limited to flood, and salt spray or salt water.
2. Normal maintenance service and recharging of dis- charged batteries.
3. Batteries in service more than 84 months.
4.
Salvage Title. This warranty does not cover damage, failure, or corrosion to any Genuine Infiniti battery
installed in the vehicle, if the vehicle is issued a
“salvage” or similar title unless state law expressly
states otherwise. (This exclusion does not extend to a
new Genuine Infiniti battery installed in the vehicle
after the issuance of a “salvage” or similar title).
WHATYOUMUSTDO
In order to obtain warranty service, you must deliver the
warranted battery or the v ehicle in which the battery is
installed to an authorized Infiniti retailer in the U.S. or
Canada at your expense, with proof of purchase (parts
invoice or service repair order from an authorized
Infiniti retailer). The names and addresses of autho-
rized Infiniti retailers are listed in telephone directories
or Infiniti.com.
If the “pro-rata adjustment” applies, you must pay for
the portion of the 84 month warrantable life that you
actually used. The amount you pay is computed in two
steps. First, the client pay percentage is determined
from the chart shown below based upon the months of
actual battery service.
Months
In Service Client Pay
Percentage
0–24 0%
25–32 25%
33–50 50%
51–84 75%
Second, the current suggested retail price of the new
battery is multiplied by the client pay percentage. For
example, should the battery fail after 40 months of
service you would pay 50% of the suggested retail price
of the new battery.
