- The defect
- Aston Martin The Americas (Aston Martin) is recalling certain 2021 DBX vehicles. The vehicles were incorrectly built without headliner foam blocks. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 201, "Occupant Protection in Interior Impact."
- What it can cause
- The missing foam blocks can increase the risk of injury to unbelted occupants in the event of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Aston Martin will notify owners, and dealers will install the headliner foam blocks, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin January 31, 2021. Owners may contact Aston Martin customer service at 1-888-923-9988. Aston Martin's number for this recall is RA-30-1471.
- 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 151 vehicles this is a small campaign: 65% 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, 2021, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2020, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 26V200000 (suspension), 24V255000 (electrical system), 24V248000 (power train).
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 Aston Martin The Americas with NHTSA on December 16, 2020 as campaign 20V784000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
