Aston Martin Lagonda of North America is recalling 315 model year 2011-2012 V8 Vantage vehicles.
The vehicles received updated transmission and engine control software which may conflict with the pre-existing clutch settings causing the transmission to act like it has been shifted to neutral.
A transmission that does not operate as intended can increase the risk of a crash.
What to do
Aston Martin will notify owners, and dealers will reinstall clutch system software, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin July 7, 2017.
Owners may contact Aston Martin customer service at 1-866-278-6661. Aston Martin's number for this recall is RA-07-0022.
