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