Details

What's wrong: Due to a faulty circuit board, the transmissions in the affected vehicles may inadvertently shift to neutral without input from the driver.

Why it matters: If the transmission shifts to neutral, the driver will not be able to maintain speed or move the vehicle out of traffic, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Aston martin will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected circuit boards, free of charge. The recall began in October 2014.
