- Suspension Component CorrosionSerious
The second-generation Vantage shows exceptionally high rates of suspension component corrosion, particularly on control arms, wishbones and suspension mounting points. The issue appears related to inadequate corrosion protection during manufacture rather than age-related wear, with failures documented on cars under 20,000 miles. Corroded suspension components present a direct safety risk and can fail catastrophically.
- Engine Management and Coil Pack FaultsModerate
The Mercedes-AMG M177 twin-turbo V8 engine can suffer from coil pack degradation and lambda sensor failures, causing the engine management light to illuminate. This is particularly common on lower-mileage examples and can relate to fuel quality sensitivity. Ignoring these faults can lead to catalyst damage and reduced fuel economy.
- Brake Pipe and Hose CorrosionSerious
Aston Martin Vantages are known to suffer from brake pipe and hose corrosion, particularly where lines run along the underside exposed to road salt and moisture. The metal ferrules connecting flexible brake hoses to hard lines can corrode, leading to brake fluid leakage and potential brake system failure.
