The short version

Aston Martin The Americas reported a problem with the power train. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

A connector for the clutch fluid line may break, resulting in a hydraulic fluid leak.

WHY IT MATTERS

The loss of hydraulic fluid may prevent the vehicle from shifting out of the gear that it is in. Additionally, if the vehicle is being driven when the fluid level significantly drops, the transmission may shift to an emergency neutral as the vehicle comes to a stop.

WHAT TO DO

Aston Martin will notify owners, and dealers will install a support bracket to hold pipe securely in position, free of charge.
