RA-07-0024 – Possible Clutch Fluid Leak – 2011-2014 Aston Martin V8 Vantage

“This site contains affiliate links for which OEMDTC may be compensated”

June 21, 2017 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V391000

Possible Clutch Fluid Leak

The loss of hydraulic fluid may prevent the vehicle from shifting out of the gear that it is in. Additionally, if the vehicle is being driven when the fluid level significantly drops, the transmission may shift to an emergency neutral as the vehicle comes to a stop. If the driver ignores the dash warning message and exits the vehicle without applying the parking brake, the vehicle may roll away. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.

 

NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V391

Manufacturer Aston Martin The Americas

Components POWER TRAIN

Potential Number of Units Affected 179

 

Summary

SAFETY RECALL ACTION

Reference number: RA-07-0024 Issued: 6 July, 2017
Subject: Connector failure on V8 Vantage 7-Speed SportShift II Transmission
Model(s): V8 Vantage and V8 Vantage S with 7-Speed SportShift II Transmission
VIN range: Refer to the separately published list of VINs
Applicable to: All USA Dealers 
Distribute to: After Sales Manager

Executive Manager

Attached Documents:

  2. Copy of the Owner Notification letter for vehicles in RA-07-0024.
  3. Copy of the Change of Keeper or Address form.

 

Reason for this Recall Action (NHTSA Ref. 17V391)

This Recall Action is applicable to the vehiclesin the USA that follow:

  • V8 Vantage Coupe and Roadster with 7-Speed “SportShift II” transmission from March 2012 thru September 2013.
  • V8 Vantage S Coupe and Roadster with 7-Speed “SportShift II” transmission from November 2010 thru September 2013.

Aston Martin has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists on a range of V8 Vantage vehicles that were manufactured from November 2010 thru September 2013.

In October 2010, a connector in the hydraulic system for the 7-speed Auto-Shift Manual (ASM) transmission that is installed on V8 Vantage, was found not to have sufficient support. The connector is between the pipe for the clutch fluid and the ASM system. It is possible that this connector can fail and cause loss of the clutch fluid.

If the hydraulic fluid leaks, the level will go down. As the fluid level goes down, the following can occur:

  • The driver may see signs of fluid below the vehicle or underneath on the ground.
  • At start-up, an “Unable to select gears” warning will show in the driver’s display and the transmission will not change from Neutral or Park into a gear. The driver will be unable to move the vehicle.
  • While driving, an “Unable to select gears” warning will flash and the driver can continue in the same gear until they choose a place to stop. In this condition, if the driver operates the brakes, the engine can be stalled as the vehicle comes to a stop.
  • If, in the case above there is sufficient pressure remaining in the hydraulic system, the transmission will select emergency neutral as the vehicle comes to a stop.

 

To correct the problem

To correct this problem, you must:

  • Do a check to see if Service Action SA-07-0225 has been completed on the vehicle.
  • If necessary, install a support bracket to hold the connector and prevent movement.

The full list of VINs for the affected vehicles is on the DCS portal as an attachment to this Recall Action document.

 

PLEASE DO A CHECK OF ALL VEHICLES THAT ARE IN THE AFFECTED VIN LIST

 

Legal Requirements

The National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act, as amended, provides that each vehicle which is subject to a recall campaign of this type must be adequately repaired within a reasonable time after the owner has tendered it for repair. Failure to repair within sixty (60) days after tender of a vehicle is prima facie evidence of failure to repair within a reasonable time.

If the condition is not adequately repaired within a reasonable time, the owner may be entitled to an identical or reasonable equivalent vehicle at no charge, or to a refund of the purchase price less a reasonable allowance for depreciation.

To avoid having to provide these difficult solutions, every effort must be made to promptly schedule an appointment with each owner and to repair their vehicle as soon as possible. As you will see in reading the attached copies of the letters that are being sent to Owners, the Owners are being instructed to contact Aston Martin Customer Service if their Dealer does not correct the condition within three (3) days of the mutually agreed upon service date. If the condition is not corrected within a reasonable time, they are instructed on how to contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

IMPORTANT: We remind you that it can be a violation of Section 30120(i) of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Act required under this notice if a Dealer sells or leases a vehicle that is covered by this notice without first completing the repair.

 

Communications

We will write to every owner directly to tell them about this Safety Recall Action. A copy of the letter is attached at the end of this Recall Action for your information. There is also a copy of the “Change of Keeper’s Address or Ownership” form.

When the Owner calls to make an appointment, briefly describe the remedial work which will be done to the Owner’s vehicle and fully explain the reason for this work. Tell the owner that the repair will be done at no cost to them.

Dear [Customer]

Safety Recall Action RA-07-0024 – Connector failure on V8 Vantage 7-Speed SportShift II Transmission

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

Aston Martin has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists on V8 Vantage vehicles that were manufactured from November 2010 thru September 2013 with 7-speed SportShift II ASM transmission.

A connector in the hydraulic system for the 7-speed Auto-Shift Manual (ASM) transmission that is installed on V8 Vantage, was found not to have sufficient support. The connector is between the pipe for the clutch fluid and the ASM system. It is possible that this connector can fail and cause loss of the clutch fluid. This would result in malfunction of the clutch system, which could cause a vehicle crash.

A Service Action was issued to repair all vehicles that are affected but our records show that your vehicle has not yet had the modiifcation.

 

WHAT WE WILL DO

Your vehicle will be examined to check if the Service Action was completed previously. If necessary, a support bracket will be installed to hold the pipe securely in position and prevent movement of the assembly. When you have booked the vehicle in with your Dealer, wherever possible they will endeavour to complete the modification while you wait, to minimize the impact on your time.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO

Please contact your Aston Martin dealer as soon as possible to arrange a date for the repair. They will be able to fully explain why this Recall Action is necessary.

Chronology :

In April 2017, we were notified about driveability problems on V8 Vantage Sportshift vehicles. The vehicles were 10,11 and 12.5 model years (manufactured from 12/2010 to 08/2012). We immediately launched an investigation into the issue.

From 25 April 2017 to 4 June 2017, an internal investigation was initiated into the possible cause of driveability and gear-shifting problems. During the investigation, it was discovered that a Service Action to correct a leaking clutch feed pipe was issued for 7-Speed Sportshift. The affected vehicles were 10,11 and 12.5 model years. This Service Action was reviewed and it was determined that VIN range issued on the original Action was incorrect.

The potential existence of a safety defect could not be excluded. A recommendation was made by the CCRG to progress the matter to the Recall Committee on 5 June, 2017.

A Recall Committee convened on June 15, 2017 and determined to recall a voluntary Recall of all vehicles that still have not had the Service Action completed, plus the additional vehicles identified.
