1 recall across 7 model years
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage S has 1 recall covering 2011-2014 model years, where the accelerator pedal arm can break, causing the engine to drop to idle and leaving the driver unable to accelerate, which raises the risk of a crash.
When the pedal arm fails, the throttle response is lost entirely rather than sticking open, so the vehicle decelerates unexpectedly. This is particularly hazardous in situations where maintaining speed is necessary, such as merging or navigating traffic.
