The 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia has 4 recalls, the most serious being a passenger-side airbag inflator that can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a risk of serious injury or death.
This airbag issue has been the subject of multiple repair attempts over the years, and prior replacement parts used as interim fixes also carry the same rupture risk, meaning vehicles that received earlier repairs may still be affected. On the brake side, the hydraulic brake system can develop a fluid leak that reduces or eliminates braking force, raising the risk of a crash.
