                  The purpose of this amendment is to amend and supplement Items
8 and 9 in the Solicitation/ Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9
previously filed by Dana Corporation, a Virginia corporation, on July 22,
2003, as thereafter amended, and to add an additional Exhibit and revise the
Exhibit Index accordingly.

Item 8.           Additional Information to be Furnished.

                  Item 8 is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph to
the end of such Section:

         On August 4, 2003, ArvinMeritor and the Offeror sought permission from
         the court to amend their complaint in the State Action. ArvinMeritor's
         and the Offeror's proposed amended complaint alleges, among other
         things: (1) that Dana's directors violated their fiduciary duties by
         failing to adequately consider ArvinMeritor's June proposals and the
         Offer, and by failing to agree to negotiate with ArvinMeritor; (2) that
         the Independent Committee was formed as a result of an undisclosed
         conflict between Dana's management and its directors, and that such
         conflict (and the resulting need to form the Independent Committee)
         makes all actions taken by the Board prior to the formation of the
         Independent Committee suspect and deficient; (3) that the members of
         the Independent Committee violated their fiduciary duties by failing to
         retain an independent financial advisor; (4) that Dana's directors
         violated their fiduciary duties by relying on Deutsche Bank; (5) that
         Dana's directors violated their fiduciary duties by not obtaining an
         opinion on the Offer from Goldman Sachs; (6) that Dana's directors
         violated their fiduciary duties by failing to redeem Dana's Rights
         Agreement; and (7) that the Company's chief executive officer violated
         his fiduciary duties by allegedly informing ArvinMeritor's chief
         executive officer on June 4, 2003, that Dana was not for sale, and that
         recent public statements by him in which he allegedly stated that there
         is no price at which he would support a sale to ArvinMeritor
         demonstrate that he is continuing to violate his fiduciary duties.

         ArvinMeritor's proposed amended complaint seeks a judgment declaring
         that Dana's directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company's
         shareholders by failing to properly consider the Offer and by refusing
         to negotiate or meet with ArvinMeritor to discuss ArvinMeritor's
         efforts to purchase the Company. In addition, ArvinMeritor and the
         Offeror seek a declaratory judgment that, among other things, the
         defendants have breached their fiduciary obligations by failing to
         ensure that no conflict exists between the defendants' own interests
         and those of the Company's shareholders or, if any such conflicts
         exist, to ensure that they are resolved in favor of the Company's
         shareholders. ArvinMeritor and the Offeror also seek an injunction
         prohibiting the Company from taking any action with respect to the
         Rights Agreement or otherwise that is designed to impede or delay the
         Offer, the Proposed Merger, or the efforts of ArvinMeritor and the
         Offeror to acquire the Company. The Company and the Board of Directors
         believe the allegations in the proposed amended complaint in the State
         Action are without merit.

         A copy of ArvinMeritor's proposed amended complaint is attached hereto
         as Exhibit (a)(14) and is hereby incorporated herein by reference. The
         foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to
         Exhibit (a)(14).
