    Recalls for 2012 Lamborghini

    2012 LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR
    NHTSA Campaign ID:EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
    Manufacturer:AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI
    Manufacture Dates:11/09/2012 - 12/07/2012
    Potential Units Affected:144

    Defect Description:

    Lamborghini is recalling certain model year 2012 Aventador vehicles manufactured July 15, 2011, through April 20, 2012 for failing to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

    Consequence:

    An incorrect headlamp aim could reduce the drivers visibility and possibly blind oncoming traffic. Either condition may increase the risk of crash.

    Action:

    Lamborghini will notify owners, and dealers will enable the vertical aiming and disable the horizontal aiming of the headlights, free of charge. Owners may contact Lamborghini at 1-866-681-6276.
    2012 LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR
    NHTSA Campaign ID:FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
    Manufacturer:Automobili Lamborghini
    Manufacture Dates:03/22/2011 - 12/05/2016
    Potential Units Affected:1453

    Defect Description:

    Automobili Lamborghini (Lamborghini) is recalling certain 2012-2017 Aventador Coupe and Aventador Roadster vehicles. In certain driving conditions while the vehicle has a full gas tank, gasoline may contact the exhaust system.

    Consequence:

    Gasoline contact with an ignition source such as a hot exhaust system can increase the risk of a fire.

    Action:

    Lamborghini will notify owners, and dealers will upgrade the fuel tank's evaporative emissions system, free of charge. The recall began February 2017. Owners may contact Lamborghini customer service at 1-866-681-6276.
    2012 LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR
    NHTSA Campaign ID:ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
    Manufacturer:Automobili Lamborghini
    Manufacture Dates:03/22/2011 - 10/14/2017
    Potential Units Affected:1700

    Defect Description:

    Automobili Lamborghini (Lamborghini) is recalling certain 2012-2018 Lamborghini Aventador Coupe and Roadster vehicles. The engine may stall unexpectedly during certain driving conditions such as when the accelerator pedal is released below 2000 rpms while the transmission is automatically down shifting to a lower gear.

    Consequence:

    An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.

    Action:

    Lamborghini will notify owners, and dealers will install updated engine software, free of charge. The recall began August 3, 2018. Owners may contact Lamborghini customer service at 1-866-681-6276. Lamborghini's number for this recall is L73X-R.02.18.
    2012 LAMBORGHINI GALLARDO
    NHTSA Campaign ID:ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: SOFTWARE
    Manufacturer:Automobili Lamborghini
    Manufacture Dates:06/23/2010 - 11/20/2013
    Potential Units Affected:1152

    Defect Description:

    Automobili Lamborghini (Lamborghini) is recalling certain 2011-2014 Gallardo Coupe and Gallardo Spyder vehicles. The Engine Control Unit (ECU) software may erase trouble codes after the ignition is turned off, not illuminating warning lamps and preventing drivers from being warned of safety system problems the next time that they are driving.

    Consequence:

    If the warning lamps do not indicate a safety system failure such as an engine or fuel injection system malfunction, continuing to drive the vehicle with a faulty system and no warning can increase the risk of a crash or injury.

    Action:

    Lamborghini will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the engine software with the appropriate procedure, free of charge. The recall began December 14, 2018. Owners may contact Lamborghini customer service at 1-866-681-6276. Lamborghini's numbers for this recall are L61XR0118/L615R0218.
