Over the duration of the multi-year agreement, Dana plans to provide fuel- line
systems, brake-vacuum lines with integrated return valves, complete windscreen
washing-line systems, and sunroof drain-hose systems.
Dana's facility in Barcelona, Spain, will provide the products for Renault
plants in Spain and France, while a Dana facility in Bursa, Turkey, will
produce components for Renault in that region of Europe.
"These will be the first Renault vehicles designed using the Renault- Nissan
Alliance New Product Quality Performance engineering procedure, and Dana is
proud to be a part of this important initiative," said Dana Chairman and CEO
Michael J. Burns. "This agreement with Renault demonstrates Dana's global
commitment of improving the vehicle performance of our customers."
"We pride ourselves in being able to offer solutions that meet the specific
needs of our customers," said Mike Laisure, president of Dana's Automotive
Systems Group. "For example, in support of Renault achieving a five-star
rating in the stringent European New Car Assessment Programme crash- testing
process, Dana designed the multi-layer plastic fuel lines to specifically avoid
kinking and rupturing."
