Aston Martin is recalling certain 2010-2016 model year vehicles including the DB9, DBS, V8 Vantage, Virage, Rapide, Vanquish, V12 Vantage, and V12 Zagato. The recalled vehicles have a defect in their interior door unlocking mechanisms that may prevent doors from being opened from inside the vehicle when it has been locked from the outside, potentially trapping occupants inside and increasing injury risk.
Owners of affected vehicles should contact Aston Martin customer service at 1-888-923-9988 to schedule a remedy. Dealers will reprogram the software to disable the double locking feature at no charge. Aston Martin's recall number is RA-01-0021.
