Aston Martin DB12 Recalls (2024-2025)
The Aston Martin DB12 has been the subject of 2 recall campaigns on record with NHTSA across the 2024 to 2025 model years. They cluster mostly around the back over prevention and engine and engine cooling.
The Aston Martin DB12 scores 94 out of 100 (grade A), one of the cleaner recall records among the vehicles we track. That score reflects how serious the recalls are rather than how many. 0% involve a critical safety system, none carried a do-not-drive warning, and 100% were issued in the last three years. How the score works.
Those 2 campaigns span 2 model years of the Aston Martin DB12. The single largest affected 1,452 vehicles, over back over prevention. A recall repair is free at a franchised dealer and most never expire, so an older open recall is still worth fixing.
The full record is below, grouped first by model year and then listed in detail. Each entry gives the defect NHTSA describes, the safety risk it creates, the manufacturer's remedy, the number of vehicles in that campaign, and the dates. A recall covers a whole production run, so a campaign listed for the Aston Martin DB12 may not apply to your exact vehicle, and one you have already had repaired will still appear in the history. To see what is actually open and unfixed on a specific car, check its 17-digit VIN.
