1 issues01Vanquish brake-assist ESP software update
The Part 573 report covers 2025-model-year Vanquish vehicles whose ESP calibration can incorrectly disable the brake vacuum pump under specific start-up conditions, reducing brake assistance.
The report states all 25MY Vanquish require the update. US vehicles were manufactured 29 November 2024–26 February 2025; the wider production window is 14 August 2024–26 June 2025. Confirm individual VIN and market with the dealer; no sequential VIN range is supplied.

The Part 573 report covers 2025-model-year Vanquish vehicles whose ESP calibration can incorrectly disable the brake vacuum pump under specific start-up conditions, reducing brake assistance.
The report states all 25MY Vanquish require the update. US vehicles were manufactured 29 November 2024–26 February 2025; the wider production window is 14 August 2024–26 June 2025. Confirm individual VIN and market with the dealer; no sequential VIN range is supplied.
- Driveability
- If pedal effort or braking behaviour changes, stop safely and obtain authorised assistance. Ask the dealer for current vehicle-specific driving instructions.
- DIY or specialist
- Authorised dealer recall work; not a DIY repair.
Early warning signs
- Harder brake pedal and reduced brake assistance
- Possible brake warning message or symbol
Likely root causes
- DTC P050FFF can incorrectly prevent the vacuum pump from generating brake-booster vacuum under the specific conditions documented in the report.
Typical cost context
- The published recall remedy is free of charge for affected vehicles. Confirm VIN and market applicability; unrelated repair costs are not estimated here.
Prevention
- Check the VIN and campaign completion with an authorised Aston Martin dealer.
- Aston Martin will update the ESP software on affected vehicles at no cost to the owner. The report states updated software entered 26MY production on 10 July 2025. Confirm campaign completion by VIN; this does not make the older Vanquish generation an affected model.

Severity reflects potential impact, not fault frequency. Diagnosis and regional labour rates affect the final repair cost.
Sources and research
Research reviewed on 7 October 2026. Manufacturer announcements establish specification, not fault frequency or the condition of an individual car. Public registry coverage is incomplete for several model/year queries. Confirm market, VIN and current dealer documentation.

Frequently asked questions
Does an empty list mean there are no known faults?
No. It means no model-specific issue has been documented in this guide at the review date. Low production, limited reporting and incomplete registry coverage can all limit the available evidence.
How do I establish recall applicability?
Ask an authorised dealer to check the exact VIN, market and installed equipment, and confirm completed work. Model-year or VIN-range information alone is not a substitute for that check.
