This page covers 6 recalls and 24 owner complaints for the 2015 Maserati Ghibli.
The dominant complaint pattern for the 2015 Maserati Ghibli centers on vehicle speed control. Multiple owners report unintended acceleration events, the car surging without driver input, sometimes reaching high speeds, and in several accounts the brake pedal failed to slow the vehicle during these episodes. Owners also describe the accelerator pedal sticking to the floor, particularly with sport mode engaged, requiring them to pull over and cycle the ignition to restore normal pedal response. Wheels and powertrain each account for a small cluster of complaints but at much lower volume. Check engine lights tied to fuel system codes appear in isolated reports. The sticking or surging throttle pattern is the clearest recurring thread across this complaint set, with multiple owners describing the ignition shutoff as the only way to regain control.

By System
The 2015 Maserati Ghibli has 6 recalls, with multiple issues that can lead to a fire, including fuel lines that may leak and front seat wiring that can short-circuit when the seats are adjusted.
Two separate fuel system recalls cover different production windows: fuel delivery hoses that were not properly crimped and fuel lines that may have been damaged during manufacturing, either of which can drip fuel near an ignition source. The seat wiring recall involves the harness rubbing against the seat mechanism during adjustment until insulation wears through and sparks. On the chassis side, a rear tie-rod bolt that was not fully tightened can allow the tie-rod to pull free from the hub carrier, causing sudden loss of steering control. Front wheel bearings on certain vehicles can fail prematurely and affect how the car handles. There is also a floor mat recall where the anchor that holds the driver-side mat in place can break, allowing the mat to slide forward and trap the accelerator pedal at a high throttle position.
