Recalls

1 vehicle recall from the manufacturer. Repairs are free. Check your VIN to see if one is still open on your car.

Electrical Vehicle recall #17V795000 · 2017 · 1,953 vehicles

What's wrong: The battery supply cable on these vehicles May become damaged when the driver seat is positioned in the full rearward location.

Why it matters: If the battery cable is damaged and then grounded, the short circuit can increase the risk of a fire.

The fix: Aston martin will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the battery supply cable for damage, and install a routing block to keep the battery supply cable from being compressed by the seat, free of charge. The recall began February 8, 2018.
