What is wrong
Aston Martin The Americas (Aston Martin) is recalling certain 2024 Valkyrie vehicles built with track suspension. In certain driving conditions, the seal within one of the brake master cylinders can deform, resulting in excessive brake pressure which can lead to overheated brakes.
The risk
Brakes that overheat increase the risk of a fire.
Why brake defects matter: Brake defects can show up as a soft or hard pedal, a warning lamp, a leak or longer stops — or with no warning at all.
The remedy
Aston Martin will replace the brake master cylinders, free of charge. Letters informing owners of the safety risk are expected to be mailed June 17, 2026. Additional letters will be mailed once the remedy is available, anticipated in November 2026. Owners may contact Aston Martin customer service at 1-888-923-9988. Aston Martin's number for this recall is RA-06-2062. The Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will become searchable on NHTSA.gov on June 17, 2026.
About the brakes

What to do
- Enter your VIN in NHTSA’s lookup (below) to confirm that your vehicle is included and that the repair has not already been done.
- Call a dealer for the brand and book the repair. Quote NHTSA campaign 26V-359 and the manufacturer’s number RA-06-2062.
- If a brake warning lamp comes on or the pedal feels different, have the vehicle inspected before you keep driving it.
- Safety recall repairs are carried out free of charge by the manufacturer’s dealers. If you already paid for this repair yourself, ask the manufacturer about reimbursement and keep your receipt.
Check by VIN
A campaign rarely covers every vehicle of a model year. Enter your 17-character VIN to find the recall campaigns filed for your make, model and model year. The VIN is on the driver’s side of the dashboard (visible through the windshield), on the door-jamb label, and on your registration and insurance documents.
Is a recall still open on your vehicle? Only NHTSA’s official VIN check can say whether a campaign applies to your exact vehicle and whether the repair has already been done.
Your VIN is decoded with NHTSA’s public vPIC service to identify the make, model and year. It is not stored and is not added to any page address.
