TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MASERATI GHIBLI. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE FLOOR MAT BECAME STUCK UNDER THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO SPEED OUT OF CONTROL. THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED PER A RECALL RELATED TO THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 10,400.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MASERATI GHIBLI. WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MASERATI OF CENTRAL FLORIDA (525 S LAKE DESTINY DR, LOCKHART, FL 32810, (407) 667-0273) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-10 NEAR PALM SPRINGS, CA FEBRUARY 27 AT ABOUT 12:10 AM. I PASSED A SEMI-TRUCK BY MOVING TO THE LEFT AND ACCELERATING. AFTER PASSING THE TRUCK I MOVED BACK TO THE SLOW LANE AND NOTICED THE CAR WAS TRAVELING VERY FAST. I BEGIN BRAKING THE CAR TO SLOW DOWN AND REALIZED THE CAR WAS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN. THE BRAKING WAS NOT NOTICEABLY SLOWING THE CAR ( AND AS YOUR RECALL CITES IT SHOULD, THE BRAKING DID NOT DISENGAGE THE ACCELERATOR.) I THEN PLACED THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL. OF COURSE THIS SOLVED THE IMMEDIATE PROBLEM. NONETHELESS THE ENGINE WAS STILL RACING AND I THEN HAD TO WEDGE MY SHOE UNDER THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND FORCEFULLY LIFT IT OFF THE FLOORBOARD. THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING EVENT FOR SOME DRIVERS AS THIS VEHICLE HAS VERY FAST ACCELERATION LEAVING LITTLE TIME TO REACT BEFORE THE CAR WOULD BE TRAVELLING AT 175 MPH ETC. OF COURSE I SEE THE RECALL, BUT I AM WRITING BECAUSE I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS WAS CAUSED BY A LOOSE FLOOR MAT. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMPUTER INPUT PROBLEM AS I NEVER HAD PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO THE FLOOR TO BE STUCK THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE. THE PEDAL WAS ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR WHEN I TRIED TO LIFT IT. SECONDLY, THE BRAKE- ENGINE DISCONNECT DID NOT WORK. I DO HAVE VIDEO OF THIS EVENT ON MY DASHCAM. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM DUE TO THE NATURE OF IT AND IS VASTLY COMPOUNDED BY THE RAPID ACCELERATION OF THIS CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MASERATI GHIBLI . CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD ILLUMINATED THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR SERVICE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE THE CHECK ENGINE SERVICE LITE WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER RUSNAK MASERATI OF PASADENA( 297 WEST COLORADO BLVD, PASADENA CA.91105) WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT LEASED A 2015 MASERATI GHIBLI. HOURS AFTER THE DEALER (RUSNAK MASERATI OF PASADENA, 297 W COLORADO BLVD, PASADENA, CA 91105) PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE ON THE VEHICLE, THE REAR WHEELS SEIZED, THE BRAKES SEIZED, AND THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE AT A RED LIGHT. THE CONTACT HAD TO COAST THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE MODULE NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INDICATED THAT THE DEALER WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE PART. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,100.

REAR BREAKS PADS AT MINIMAL UNDER 13,300 MILES ON THE CAR. MASERATI REFUSE TO REPLACE THEM UNDER WARRANTY. I UNDERSTAND ITS WEAR AND TEAR BUT NOT WHEN THE CAR HAS 13,300 MILES. NO CAR WILL PUT YOU TO REPLACE BREAK PADS AT LOW LOW MILES. I AM SURE THIS COULD BE MANUFACTURING MALFUNCTION FAULTY AND IT I'M SURE THERE IS OTHER MASERATI OWNERS HAS THE SAME PROBLEM.

The contact owns a 2015 Maserati Ghibli. The contact stated that after driving and arriving at his destination, the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic. The mechanic used a handheld scanner to retrieve DTC: P2402. The mechanic advised the contact that the issue was related to the fuel line. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V831000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 38,593.

This vehicle calls for a recall when seats are affected and or shorten wires and stay stuck in an unsafe position where it is nearly almost impossible to reach peddles. Also passenger seat as well is stuck because of faulty wires. Allegedly the job was done by dealer in Dec 1 2016 and the problem relived on this specific vehicle.

THE CAR UNINTENTIONALLY ACCELERATES. THIS HAPPENED ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE 1ST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. IT'S A 2015 MODEL. I PURCHASED A VEHICLE IN AUGUST 2020. THE 2ND OCCURRENCE HAPPENED NOV 12 AND TODAY NOV 21. THE 1ST TIME THIS HAPPENED I DID SOME RESEARCH AND IT SEEMED LIKE THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH MASERATIS FLOOR OWN FLOOR MATS. AT THE TIME AND PRIOR TO KNOWING THIS, I HAD PUT BRAND NEW FLOOR MATS OF MY OWN IN THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY UNAWARE THAT THIS WAS AN OEM ISSUE. AFTER THIS HAPPENED THE 1ST TIME, I REMOVED MY PERSONAL FLOOR MATS THINKING THAT WOULD SOLVE THE ISSUE. THE 2ND TIME THIS HAPPENED, THE ISSUE WAS SLIGHT AND THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS AROUND ME. I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS AN OPERATOR ISSUE USING MANUAL SHIFTING PERHAPS. AT ANY RATE I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE 2ND OCCURRENCE RATHER QUICKLY TO THE POINT WHERE THIS WAS ALMOST UNNOTICEABLE. THIS THIRD TIME THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY LOST CONTROL AND I HAD TO DEPRESS THE BREAK PEDAL %100 IN TRAFFIC TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE CAR. MEANWHILE, IT WOULD STILL CONTINUE TO DO THE ACCELERATION. THE CAR WAS SCREECHING AND ACCELERATING WITH ME DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. I PULLED OFF SAFELY ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL 100% DEPRESSED. I THREW THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. THIS VEHICLE DOESN'T ALLOW YOU TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL WHILE OCCURRING.(UNSAFE)I DON'T THINK THIS ISSUE HAS RELEVANCE TO THE CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS MODEL, WHICH IS FLOORMAT RELATED. WHEN TRYING TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE I CONSCIOUSLY TRIED TO SEE IF THE PEDAL WAS STUCK AND IT WAS NOT. ALSO THERE ARE NO REPORTED RECALLS FOR MY PARTICULAR VIN SO I'M REPORTING THIS NOW.I HAVE SINCE CONTACTED MASERATI AND HAVE A CURRENT REPAIR SCHEDULED. AT THIS TIME, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WILL DO THIS REPAIR FREE OF CHARGE BUT WILL HAVE FOLLOW-UP DETAILS AVAILABLE IF NEED BE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MASERATI GHIBLI. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER MAKING A LEFT TURN FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED TO 120 MPH WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND FAILED TO SLOW THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT PLACED THE IGNITION IN THE OFF POSITION TO SLOW AND STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT BYSTANDERS ASSISTED WITH PUSHING THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROADWAY. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE TO THE RESIDENCE. MASERATI OF NAPLES (900 TAMIAMI TRAIL N, NAPLES, FL 34102, 866-603-6044, WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,800. *LN *JS

HEATER ACTUATOR FAILED AFTER 13,000 MILES. HEATER STOPPED WORKING WHEN TURNED ON. COMPANY REDESIGNED PART BUT REFUSED TO REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY AFTER THE PARTS FAILED ON MANY CARS.

THE VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED WITH AN ALUMINUM FRONT CHASSIS THAT WAS TO THIN FOR THE ROAD SO IT CRACKED LEAVING THE CAR UNABLE TO STEER THE FRONT WHEELS CORRECTLY. IT HAPPENS WITH NORMAL DRIVING AND A RECALL WAS NOT ISSUED FOR ALL CARS BECAUSE IT WOULD AFFECT SALES. IT HAD TO BE DISCOVERED BY A REPAIR FACILITY TO BE FIXED OTHERWISE IT WAS HIDDEN BY MASERATI NA.

THE FELT WHEEL LINER ON BOTH FRONT WHEELS IS DEFECTIVE. MASERATI ALONG WITH ALL DEALERS I'VE SPOKEN TO KNOW OF THE ISSUE. I SPOKE TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE COLLECTION/MASERATI IN MIAMI AND HE STATED THEY ARE REPLACING THEM EVERY SINGLE DAY (YET MASERATI REFUSES TO FIX THE DEFECTIVE PRODUCT UNDER WARRANTY). THEY BECOME TORN AND DISLODGED WHEN GOING THROUGH PUDDLES/NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS (WHEN IT'S RAINING). ONCE DISLODGED, IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. NOT ONLY CAN THEY FLY UP UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE AND HIT OBJECTS/VEHICLES/PEOPLE, BUT THEIR DISLOCATION CAN RUN AGAINST THE WHEEL AND CAUSE A SERIES OF ADVERSE EVENTS, EVEN THE POSSIBILITY OF LOSING CONTROL. MASERATI KNOWS OF THE ISSUE, IS CONCEALING THE ISSUE, HAS REFUSED TO PROVIDE A RECALL FOR THE DEFECTIVE WHEEL LINERS, AND ARE INSTEAD FORCING THE CONSUMER TO MITIGATE IT ON THEIR OWN.

WHILE DRIVING AT SAFE SPEED IN SNOW AND SLUSH, STABILITY WAS LOST. I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE PASSING A TRUCK, BETWEEN THE CENTER DIVIDER AND THE TRUCK, WHILE IN A MILD RIGHT TURN UPHILL. THE LEFT TIRES CAUGHT SOME SLUSH, AND I CORRECTED TRYING TO REMAIN IN THE LANE AND AVOIDING THE DIVIDER AND THE TRUCK BY STEERING RIGHT, THEN COUNTERSTEERING LEFT, THEN RIGHT AGAIN.. TWO CORRECTIONS TO THE RIGHT WITH THE TAIL MOVING LEFT ACTIVATED THE ESC. AS MY HD VIDEO SHOWS, THE CORRECTIVE ACTION ACTIVATED THE ESC AND TOOK CONTROL FROM ME AND VIOLENTLY DROVE ME INTO THE DIVIDER BY ACTIVATING THE LEFT FRONT BRAKE. I BOUNCED OFF THE DIVIDER INTO THE TRUCK'S TRACTOR REAR TIRES, SPUN, AND THEN BACK INTO THE WALL. I HAD CONTROL, EVEN WITH THE UNSTABLE CONDITION, UP UNTIL THE ESC ACTIVATED. AS A PROFESSIONAL PILOT AND A DRIVER WHO'S BEEN DRIVING ON SNOW AND ICE SINCE AGE 15, I UNDERSTAND CONTROL, LOSS OF CONTROL, AND HOW TO REGAIN IT. I HAD CONTROL UNTIL THE SAFETY SYSTEM TOOK IT FROM ME. I HAVE HAD 747S MOVING SIDEWAYS DOWN THE RUNWAY AND HAVE ALWAYS REGAINED CONTROL. NEVER IN MY PRIVATE OR PROFESSIONAL LIFE HAVE I HAD A COMPUTERIZED SAFETY SYSTEM ENDANGER MY LIFE. BUT IN THIS INSTANCE IT MOST DEFINITELY DID. HAD I NOT HIT THE TRUCK'S TIRES I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE GONE UNDER THE TRAILER AND BEEN DECAPITATED OR OTHERWISE INJURED OR KILLED. THE HISTORY OF ESC SHOWS IT HAS A SUCCESSFUL RECORD. HOWEVER, IN THIS INSTANCE IT IS DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACCIDENT. I HAD ESC ACTIVATE ONCE BEFORE IN THE SAME VEHICLE ON DRY PAVEMENT, AND IT DID REMARKABLY WELL. BUT IT THIS INCIDENT WHICH DESTROYED MY PRIZED MASERATI, IT EITHER ACTIVATED WITH TOO MUCH FORCE OR ACTIVATED ALONG WITH MY COUNTERSTEERING. NEVERTHELESS, WITHOUT A EDR DOWNLOAD, THE DATA CANNOT BE ANALYZED. ONLY MY RECOLLECTION AND MY VIDEO CAN BE SEEN.

IN 2015 I LEASED A MASERATI GHIBLI AT RUSNAK PASADENA CA WITH A 39 MONTH LEASE TERM. ON MAY 18, 2018 - I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR A OIL CHANGE SERVICE AT A LOCAL DEALER (MASERATI ALFA ROMEO OF PUENTE HILLS, CA), SERVICE'S DONE AROUND 2:56 PM(5/18/2018) , I DROVE THE CAR FOR APPROXIMATELY 2-3 HOURS TO RUN SOME ERRANDS, ALL THE SUDDEN THE BRAKE SYSTEM LOCKED ALL WHEELS WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET. LUCKY, WE WERE DRIVING ON LOCAL STREET AT AVERAGE SPEED OF 30 MPH, OTHER WISE THIS SUDDEN STOP COULD HAVE GET US HIT BY OTHER CARS AND/OR SUSTAINING A SERIOUS HEAD INJURY RESULTING FROM A ROLLOVER CAR ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS SUDDEN 'AUTO BRAKE LOCK' ON CITY STREET. THIS SUDDEN 'AUTO BREAK LOCK' MADE A VERY LOUD SQUEAKING SOUND AND MADE A BLACK TRACK MARK ON THE ROAD. ALL THREE OF US ON THE CAR WERE TERRIFIED. OUR CAR'S DASH BOARD DID NOT SHOW ANY WARNING LIGHT OR SERVICE LIGHT BEFORE OR AFTER THIS HAPPENED (BRAKE MELT FUNCTION). THIS CAR IS BRAND NEW WHEN I LEASED IT IN 2015 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE AROUND '15196' MILES. SINCE IT STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY THEN THE CAR DEALER WILL REPAIR FOR FREE. IT'S ALREADY BEEN SIT IN THE DEALER REPAIR SHOP FOR ALMOST TWO MONTHS NOW, UNTIL TODAY(7/5/2018) THE DEALER STILL HASN'T PROVIDE A PROPER EXPLANATION OF WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED? AND I DON'T WANT TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE THIS CAR, I AM SO CONCERNED AND WORRIED IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. IT IS SO SCARY WHEN THE CAR STOPS ABRUPTLY BY ITSELF, AND THE PART REALLY BOTHERS ME IS I DON'T KNOW WHEN THIS 'AUTO BRAKE LOCKING' WILL HAPPEN AGAIN? WITHOUT ANY WARNING SIGN, THE WORST PART IS THE EVEN THE DEALER DOESN'T HAVE AN ANSWER FOR THIS, THEY JUST CHANGED THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND CALLED IT DONE.

I PURCHASED THE 2015 MASERATI GHIBLI SQ4 NOV 2015, AND AFTER 2000 MILES THE CAR HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR CONDITION STUCK IN DEFROST MODE. TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALER FOR SERVICE REPAIR AND THEY FOUND THE ISSUE WITH THE AIR CONDITION SOLENOID THAT WAS REPLACED. THEN I STARTED HAVING TOO MUCH FRONT WINDSHIELD DEFROST AND IT COVERS MY FRONT VIEW. TO REPRODUCE THE CONCERN START THE CAR AND OPEN UP THE 4 WINDOWS DRIVE UP FOR MORE THAN 15 MINUTES, THEN STOP THE CAR CLOSE THE WINDOWS AND TURN OF THE ENGINE. COME BACK AFTER 10 MIN OR MORE START THE ENGINE, ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS AND START DRIVING. YOU'LL FEEL THE HEAT INSIDE FROM THE ENGINE INSIDE THE CAR, AND YOU'LL START SEEING LARGE AMOUNT OF DEFROST INSIDE THE WINDSHIELD EVEN THE WINDOWS ROLLED DOWN. I HAD TO KEEP TURNING IN FRONT AND BACK DEFROST AND THE AIR CONDITION. TURN OFF THE AIR CONDITION KEEP DRIVING THEN THE DEFROST WILL COME BACK AGAIN AND THE ONLY WAY TO ELIMINATE THE DEFROST YOU HAVE TO KEEP BOTH DEFROST AND AIR CONDITION ON ALL THE TIME. THE SERVICE SHOP STATED THIS IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. PLEASE ADVICE!

PURCHASE THIS CAR IN DECEMBER 2015 AND ONLY PLACED 2500 MILES ON THE AUTO AND SERVICE ATTENDANT SAID YOU MUST DRIVE THE CAR 4000 MILES TO KEEP THE BATTERY CHARGED. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE AUTO FOR 6 MONTHS. SPOKE TO THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER AND THIS IS ONE OF THE ISSUES OF THIS VEHICLE. THEY ARE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE ME FOR A BATTERY IN WHICH I HAVE ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS.

THE PIRELLI P ZERO 285/35 R20 C100YD DOT XB 6F N662 RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT TOTALLY. THE SIDEWALL SEPARATED ON THE STREET SIDE OF THE TIRE ON A SMOOTH HIGHWAY, TRAVELING ABOUT 65 MPH WITH ONLY 850 MILES OF WEAR. THE TIRES HANDLE GREAT BUT I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY TIRE BLOW OUT ESPECIALLY AT 850 MILES. SEEMS OTHER MAKES OF P ZERO TIRES HAVE BEEN RECALLED, LOOKS LIKE PIRELLI HAS ANOTHER LEMON ON ITS HANDS. THE CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP NOW, WAITING TO SEE HOW THEY HANDLE IT.
