REASON FOR THIS PROGRAM

Option 1:  Provide all-weather floor mats to the original titled owner at no charge.  For customer convenience, a shipping and handling allowance has been approved for customers who request the all-weather floor mats be shipped to their location (see “Claims Preparation and Submission” in Attachment I).

Option 2:  Refund $120 (plus applicable sales tax) to the original titled owner, using the following steps:

  1. Submit a claim for the refund amount to close the program (see “Claims Preparation and Submission” in Attachment I).
  2. Provide the refund plus tax to the original titled owner.  

Important Note:  The owner letter for this program will be mailed to original titled owners only.  For sold units, dealers should only provide all-weather floor mats or refunds to customers in possession of the owner letter.  In addition, all-weather floor mats or refunds to fleet customers should be discussed with and approved by the owner of the vehicle, which may not be the operator.

 

OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE

Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of December 12, 2016.
