Visteon’s audit committee and outside counsel recently completed an independent review of the accounting for certain transactions originating in the company’s North American purchasing group. Enquiries established that some expenses for freight, raw materials and other supplier costs originating in North America were recorded in periods after 31 December 2004, and should have been recorded in prior periods. The latest filings correct these errors and make other adjustments.
