Lamborghini has long been known for its luxurious sports cars and signature designs. There are roughly 9,300 of these models available in the world today. Many car owners dream of having one in their collection. But before purchasing a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, it is important for all prospective buyers to know about some common problems in this Lamborghini model. This will help you to make informed decisions so you are prepared for your new vehicle.
Common Lamborghini Problems
The Lamborghini is one of the most high-performance luxury vehicles that many car owners are excited to drive. There are a few mechanical issues that show up in this particular model that every Aventador owner should know. The most common Aventador SVJ problems include the issues below.
Unstable Engine
Some drivers have noticed that the engine often fluctuates between low and high RPMS while being driven. This can be risky because it may destabilize the vehicle and end up causing an accident. This issue may require a software update before driving again.
Faulty Connections
Some models of Lamborghini have been recalled due to faulty connections. This includes the connections of the steering piping and hose. While there have been major strides by the company to fix these issues in models since the Lamborghini Spyder, it may still be a potential problem in the Aventador SVJ.
In some Lamborghini’s, the steering hose, piping, and connections that led to the hydraulic system pump sometimes leak when being used. If this happens around an ignition source, even something as simple as a cigarette, there is an increased risk of fire.
Faulty Headlights
Headlights are critical for ensuring everyone can see and be seen on the road. When the headlights stop working, it may lead to disaster on the road. In some models of the Lamborghini, the headlights malfunctioned and would not reposition vertically. This limited the visibility for the driver and went against the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety standards. The horizontal look of the headlights also tended to blind other drivers. Watch for this issue with the Aventador SVJ.
Exhaust System Failure
This problem is not common with the Aventador model, being found in only five vehicles, so far. However, several drivers found that when driving in rough terrains or in the rain, when the tank was full, the fuel could make contact with the exhaust system. This can increase the risk of fire. When this happens in your Aventador, it will require a replacement fuel tank to fix the problem.
Faulty Brakes
When driving down the road, car owners need to know they can trust their breaks to work well. The Lamborghini can have trouble with corrosion of the steel screws that are meant to secure the brake rotors. The screws are vulnerable to salinity, and they may not work well. This leads to the brakes failing and potentially a major accident.
Fuel System Failure
Some models of the Lamborghini had a faulty fuel tank. The fuel pump that is inside the tank is supported by some welds. These welds had the potential to detach while the vehicle was in motion. This could cause a fuel leak and turn into a potential fire hazard. This is an issue that requires professional mechanics to completely replace the fuel tank before the car owner could drive again.
Many of these potential problems of the Lamborghini can cause a lot of damage and even be fatal. It is important to keep up on regular maintenance of your car to be safe. If any of these problems show up in your Lamborghini, it is important to bring your car into a reputable auto repair shop immediately. This can help get the problem fixed and prevents more issues, and more expenses, happening down the road.
