STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR:HINGE AND ATTACHMENTS
- The defect
- Lamborghini (Automobili Lamborghini) is recalling certain 2020 Aventador SVJ Coupe and Aventador SVJ Roadster vehicles. The interior door handle mechanism may fail, resulting in the vehicle's door being unable to be opened by using the inside door handle.
- What it can cause
- If a door cannot be opened with the interior handle in the case of an emergency, it can increase the risk of injury for the driver or passenger.
- What the dealer does
- Lamborghini will notify owners, and dealers will replace the interior door handle, free of charge. The recall began April 29, 2020. Owners may contact Lamborghini customer service at 1-866-681-6276. Lamborghini's number for this recall is L73X-R.02.20.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 26 vehicles this is a small campaign: 84% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2020, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2020, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Lamborghini vehicles have been recalled over the structure once before this, most recently in July 1998 as 98V162000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 20V618000 (suspension).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Lamborghini (Automobili Lamborghini) with NHTSA on March 18, 2020 as campaign 20V151000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
