NHTSA recall 17V795000
Electrical System · Aston Martin The Americas
Details
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.
