Item 4.01 Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On March 14, 2007, PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP (“PwC”), the independent registered public accounting firm of Amerigon Incorporated (the “Corporation”) stated to the Corporation that it was declining to stand for re-election as the Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm. PwC’s reports on the Corporation’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 did not contain adverse opinions or disclaimers of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. PwC’s decision to not stand for re-election was made unilaterally by PwC. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and through March 14, 2007, there have been no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the Corporation’s financial statements for such years. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and through March 14, 2007, there were no “reportable events,” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Corporation provided PwC a copy of the above disclosure and requested that PwC furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) stating whether or not PwC agrees with the statements made above. A copy of PwC’s letter to the Commission is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.

Sections 5-8. Not applicable.
