What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2015 Aston Martin DB9, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

Each component in detail
What the reports in each category say, in the owners' own words
Electrical
Reports naming the electrical system — wiring, battery, charging, control modules, infotainment and electrical accessories.
From owner reports, verbatim
Headlights, not bulbs, failed in both. It is available for inspection. Creates driving hazard for all.The defect has been confirmed by shop and no other inspections at this time. I did communicate with dealer who said they are not covered under any warranty or recall, and acknowledged it is a factory defect. No warning lights. The problem first appeared in January of 2022.
Both rear tail light covers are fogging and holding moisture droplets. Right side break light fails intermittently and before long may lead to electrical problems or loss of break light function. Car is just recently out of warranty so I don't anticipate any help from the dealer. The problem is consistent with other owners. Thank you.
