"Close enough, it was the venerable Ferrari 458. The problem is documented here:"
That as well. The Lamborghini recall is from February this year, though I admit I did confuse the fault with the Ferrari one - in the latest Lambo fault it's fuel spilling on the exhaust that causes the fires.
The point remains the same despite the poster above who says it should not happen - to design a defect free supercar would cost more than it would to design a defect free supermini - and these are so expensive to design that the result is often shared among multiple badges. Engineering is a real world discipline and the best engineering in the world is no good if nobody can afford it.
