The 2015 Aston Martin Rapide has 2 recalls, the more serious being a transmission fault where the park pawl may fail to engage, leaving the car free to roll if parked on a slope without the parking brake applied.
The second recall involves the interior door unlocking mechanism, which can fail to release when the car has been locked from outside. An occupant may be unable to open the door from inside the cabin, trapping them in the vehicle.
