Report Date: December 14, 2012 at 09:03 AM
NHTSA Campaign ID number: 12V561000
Vehicle Model Year(s) Make / Model: 2012 LAMBORGHINI / AVENTADOR
Manufacturer: AUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINI
Report Receipt Date: DEC 04, 2012
Component: EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
Potential Number of Units Affected: 144
Summary:
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." The affected vehicles may have headlights that can be
aimed horizontally but not vertically.
Consequence:
An incorrect headlamp aim could reduce the drivers visibility and
possibly blind oncoming traffic. Either condition may increase the
risk of crash.
Remedy:
Lamborghini will notify owners, and dealers will enable the vertical
aiming and disable the horizontal aiming of the headlights, free of
charge. The safety recall is expected to begin on December 17, 2012.
Owners may contact Lamborghini at 1-866-681-6276.
