Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

32 units potentially affected
The defect: Pagani Automobili SpA (Pagani) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Huayra vehicles manufactured April 21, 2014, to July 29, 2016. In the affected vehicles, the driver side frontal air bag may not remain adequately secured to the steering wheel during deployment, and therefore the air bag may deploy improperly.
The risk: Improper deployment of the driver frontal air bag can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
The remedy: Pagani has notified owners, and dealers will change the fasteners on the steering wheel air bag assembly, free of charge. The recall began August 16, 2016. Owners may contact Pagani customer service at 1-415-350-7220.
