Renault SA has again asked Nissan Motor Co. to hold an extraordinary shareholders meeting to pick ousted Nissan Chairman Carlos Ghosn's successor, sources close to the matter said Thursday.
A letter requesting the meeting arrived after Nissan rejected an earlier call by Renault, its biggest shareholder, to hold a shareholders meeting to discuss the French automaker's representation in the Japanese firm before Nissan board members met on Dec. 17, the sources said.
On Dec. 17, Nissan did not name a successor to Ghosn, who has been dismissed as chairman following the arrest for alleged underreporting of remuneration.
