What's wrong?
The 2007-2008 Lamborghini Murcielago and Murcielago Roadster use a fuel tank assembly that stores gasoline and holds the fuel pump inside the tank. The fuel pump draws fuel from the tank and sends it to the engine. A support inside the tank keeps that pump positioned where it belongs.
In this recall, the problem is the welds that hold the fuel pump support in place. If those welds detach, the support loses its fixed position inside the tank. That movement can damage the tank assembly or disturb the pump area enough for gasoline to leak.
There is no warning sign before failure. If the welds let go, an owner is not given a clear dashboard light, sound, or drivability clue before a fuel leak starts.
Who's affected?
Covers the Murcielago coupe and Roadster across the 2007 and 2008 model years, both tied to the same fuel system component.

What's the safety risk?
Fuel leakage near an ignition source can result in a fire. There is no warning sign listed before failure, so treat any fuel odor or visible fuel as a reason to park safely and call a Lamborghini dealer. Repair will be free at any franchised Lamborghini dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2007-2008 Lamborghini Murcielago or Murcielago Roadster is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Lamborghini dealer with recall number 10V215 and ask whether the free fuel-tank replacement is open for your VIN.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it, and ask the dealer to replace the fuel tank that can leak if the fuel-pump support welds detach.
- Avoid ignition sources around the vehicle if you smell fuel before the repair.
- Call Lamborghini at 1-912-409-5634 if the dealer cannot confirm the campaign for your VIN.
What happens at the repair
The repair is a fuel tank replacement. At the dealer, a Lamborghini technician replaces the fuel tank so the fuel pump support inside the tank is no longer held by welds that detached. Because the current remedy status is not listed, treat scheduling as unconfirmed until Lamborghini or the dealer verifies the repair is open for your VIN. The dealer repair will be free once available, with parts and labor covered under the recall.
