Aston Martin bulletin SB-10-0409V2

Aston Martin filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Jun 6, 2019, received Jul 22, 2019, about the fuel system, gasoline. It names 8 model years (2016–2019). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5; the full text comes from the manufacturer or a dealer. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. Quote it at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Aston Martin SB-10-0409V2 a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the SB-10-0409V2 repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.

Which vehicles does SB-10-0409V2 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 8 model years: 2016 Aston Martin DB9, 2019 Aston Martin DBS, 2018 Aston Martin Vanquish, 2017 Aston Martin Vanquish, 2016 Aston Martin Vanquish, 2017 Aston Martin DB9 GT and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
