2010 Rolls-Royce Ghost

The 2010 Rolls-Royce Ghost has 3 recalls, all centered on the same fire risk: the circuit board inside the electric auxiliary water pump can overheat and cause the pump to smolder or start an engine compartment fire.

All three recalls describe the same underlying defect in turbocharged models. The auxiliary water pump relies on a circuit board to manage cooling flow, and when that board overheats, the pump itself can begin to smolder. Left unchecked, that smoldering can spread into a full engine compartment fire. The three separate filings reflect overlapping coverage across model years and related platforms sharing the same pump design, but the physical problem and its consequence are identical across all of them. Owners of any Ghost from this era with a turbocharged engine should confirm whether their VIN falls within the covered range, as the defect is present regardless of how many miles the vehicle has accumulated or how recently it was serviced.
