FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
Summary
Automobili Lamborghini (Lamborghini) is recalling certain 2012-2017 Aventador Coupe and Aventador Roadster vehicles. In certain driving conditions while the vehicle has a full gas tank, gasoline may contact the exhaust system.
Potential Consequence

Fuel System
Summary
On certain vehicles, liquid fuel could leak into the emissions evaporative control (EVAP) system under certain conditions. If this occurs, the EVAP system may not be able to properly filter the fuel vapors. This could cause an accumulation of fuel vapors in the EVAP system which, in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will upgrade the EVAP system with an updated version.
