The 2011 Lamborghini Gallardo has 2 recalls, both centering on the same issue: engine control software that can erase fault codes when the ignition is switched off, preventing warning lights from turning on the next time the car is started.
If a problem with the engine or fuel injection system develops, the driver may have no dashboard indication that anything is wrong and could continue driving with a faulty system without knowing it. The fix involves correcting the software so that fault codes are properly retained and warning lights activate as intended.
