Maserati has 43 recall campaigns across 9 models. A defect is admitted 1.5 years after the car was built on average, and 4.2% of campaigns come five years or later.

| Suspension | 9.3% | |
| Exterior Lighting | 9.3% | |

How long a defect stays unadmitted
Campaign numbers encode the year they were announced, so we can measure how quickly Maserati acts once a defect exists.
| Measure | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Average gap | 1.5 years | Between the car being built and the defect being admitted |
| Admitted 5+ years later | 4.2% | Share of campaigns on cars already well used |
| Campaigns on record | 43 | Across 9 models, 1984–2025 |
Across all brands the average is 3.79 years. Faster is better, but a low figure can also mean a young line-up — read it next to the number of campaigns.
Maserati recalls by model

Check your own car
Maserati has 43 campaigns on record across 9 models, but none of them covers a whole model — only a production range inside it, sometimes a few weeks of assembly. So the 43 figure says nothing about any particular Maserati: checking the VIN narrows those 43 down to the handful that touch one car, and shows whether the free fix was already carried out on it.
| Step | What you get |
|---|---|
| Enter the VIN above | Open campaigns for that exact vehicle, straight from NHTSA |
| Check the repair status | Whether the free fix has already been carried out on this car |
| Book at any franchised dealer | Recall work is free regardless of age, mileage or owner |

Frequently asked questions
How many recalls does Maserati have?
43 campaigns across 9 models. On its own the number reflects how many models a brand sells — the response time says more.
Is Maserati slow to admit defects?
On average a Maserati defect is admitted 1.5 years after the car was built, against about 3.79 years across all brands. 4.2% of campaigns come five years or later.
Does a recall mean the car is unsafe?
It means a specific fault was found in a specific production range and must be fixed free of charge. A brand with many campaigns is not automatically worse — sometimes it simply reports faster.
How do I check my own Maserati?
By VIN. Campaigns cover production ranges, so the model alone does not tell you whether your car is affected.
