The 2016 Ferrari California T has 4 recalls, the most serious being a Takata airbag inflator that can explode and send metal fragments into the cabin, and a fuel line that may not seat properly on the fuel pump and can leak in the engine compartment, raising the risk of fire.
There is also a hydraulic brake recall where a loss of brake function can increase the risk of a crash. On the restraint side, the airbag control unit may malfunction and cause airbags or seatbelt pretensioners to fail to deploy or deploy incorrectly in a crash, leaving occupants without their intended protection.
