The 2022 Aston Martin DBX has 3 recalls, the most serious of which involve an engine fire risk from failing oil cooler hoses and a rear suspension pin that can slide free and shear the lower suspension arm, causing sudden loss of vehicle control.
Loose electrical cables in the battery fuse box can cause the engine to stall without warning or cut power to the headlights and electric power steering simultaneously, leaving the driver without illumination or full steering assist at speed. On the engine side, oil cooler hoses that were not properly formed can split and leak oil, which can both cut drive power to the wheels and ignite a fire in the engine bay. The suspension concern is equally serious: a pin in the torque reaction link can work loose from the rear lower suspension arm, and if the arm cracks or breaks free, the rear end can shift unpredictably, and the failure can also damage nearby brake lines, compounding the loss of control.
