DEARBORN, Michigan, June 28, 2004 — The Board of Directors of Visteon Corporation (NYSE: VC) today announced the appointment of Michael F.

As Mike assumes the CEO role, I look forward to continuing our strong personal and professional relationship.”

Johnston said, “I appreciate the support from the Visteon Board of Directors and the continued confidence they have in me to take this company forward. Visteon has never been in a stronger position than today to deliver value to our customers, employees and shareholders because of the solid foundation developed under Pete’s leadership.
