What's wrong?
The rear engine hood on the 2018-2021 Lamborghini Aventador Svj Coupe covers the engine bay and stays attached through hinges and retaining screws. Those screws hold the hood in alignment while the car accelerates, brakes, and moves over road surfaces. The hinge is supposed to keep the hood latched and secured at speed.
On affected Coupes, heat can deform a plastic element in the hood hinge. That deformation reduces the clamping force, or torque, on the retaining screws. As the screws loosen over time, the hinge loses its hold on the rear engine hood. In high-speed driving with strong vertical or forward forces, the hood can open and detach from the vehicle.
There is no warning sign before failure. The hood can flip open without advance notice, and once it detaches, it becomes a road hazard for traffic behind the vehicle.
Who's affected?
Spans the 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 Aventador Svj coupe, with the same body-structure component named for each model year.
