The 2016 Maserati Ghibli has 4 recalls, the most serious being a rear suspension bolt that may not have been properly tightened during assembly, allowing the rear tie-rod to break free from the hub carrier and cause sudden loss of steering control.
A second serious concern involves the driver-side floor mat anchor, which can break and allow the mat to slide forward and wedge itself between the accelerator pedal and the carpet, pinning the throttle open and causing the vehicle to accelerate uncontrollably. On the electrical side, adjusting the power front seats can cause the seat wiring harness to chafe against surrounding components and short-circuit, raising the risk of a fire inside the cabin. One recall covers a specific batch of Pirelli P Zero All Season tires in size 275/40R19 fitted to a small number of 2016 models: the lower sidewall on these tires can develop cracks that allow air to escape, potentially leading to a blowout and loss of vehicle control.
