These two recalls describe the same underlying defect and should be treated as one issue.
The 2013 Lamborghini Gallardo has 2 recalls, both covering the same problem: engine control software that can erase fault codes when the ignition is switched off, leaving warning lights dark the next time the car is started.
If the vehicle develops a problem with the engine or fuel injection system, the driver may have no indication anything is wrong and continue driving with a faulty system, potentially making the underlying condition worse or creating a safety risk before it is ever noticed.
