Recall 05V-513: 2006 Aston Martin DB9
ASTON MARTIN recall for power train, reported to NHTSA on Nov 7, 2005, covering about 67 vehicles.
The problem
On certain passenger vehicles, when a load is applied on the parking interlock system, the locking cone, which is part of the parking pawl system, may create an indentation on an unhardened guide plate at the cone contact area. An indentation may also result in a raised edge towards the locking cone guide channel which may hinder the locking cone from reaching its end position.
The risk
The park may not engage when the "p" button in the vehicle is pressed to select park and all indicators show the park position is achieved. This could result in a vehicle roll-away condition, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the parking pawl glide plate. The recall is expected to begin on december 23, 2005. Owners may contact aston martin at 201-818-8328.
