Lamborghini Gallardo recalled over fire risk

Faulty power steering lines to blame
The Italian supercar stereotype refuses to die as the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced the Lamborghini Gallardo will be recalled over a potential fire risk.

According to the agency, 2004-2006 Gallardos were equipped with high pressure steering lines that could leak and spill fluid. This could potentially start a fire, turning your raging bull into a raging inferno.

The recall affects 1,491 vehicles and owners will be notified shortly. They can take their car into the dealership where an updated power steering system will be installed free of charge.

Not a German fanboy but just pointing out the fact that Lamborghini is just german owned with some parts-sharing with the germans (which has certainly improved reliability). They are still conceived, designed and built in Italy. The whole world knows Ferraris catch fire the most and they are certainly not German.
