34 recalls across 14 model years
The Maserati Quattroporte has 34 recalls spanning 2005 through 2024, with the most serious recent issue being incomplete front subframe welds on 2018 models that can fracture and cause a sudden loss of vehicle control.
The 2021-2022 model years have a fuel line pressure sensor housing that can crack and leak fuel, raising the risk of an engine stall or fire. On 2021 vehicles, the rear seatbelt automatic locking retractors can deactivate too early, preventing a child safety seat from securing properly in a crash. The 2021-2024 model years share a radio software defect that can prevent the rearview camera image from appearing when reversing.
The 2017-2018 era carries several distinct issues. On 2018 models, fuel delivery pipe connections in the engine compartment can leak, creating a fire risk. On 2017 V6-equipped models, an engine software fault can cause the transmission to unexpectedly shift into neutral or park, or shut the engine off entirely in stop-and-go traffic. A loose rear differential pinion nut on some 2017 vehicles can allow the pinion gear to bind and lock the rear wheels. The 2017 model also has front seat wiring that can chafe during seat adjustment and short-circuit, and in cold weather the infotainment module can shut down and take the backup camera with it. Certain 2017 vehicles were equipped with Pirelli P Zero All Season tires that can develop lower sidewall cracks and lose air pressure.
The 2014-2016 years have a cluster of structural and fuel-related concerns. Rear tie-rod bolts on 2014-2016 vehicles may not have been fully tightened, allowing the tie rod to separate from the hub carrier and cause a loss of steering control. The driver-side floor mat anchor on 2014-2016 models can break, letting the mat slide under the accelerator pedal and hold it down. Fuel lines on 2014-2015 vehicles can leak due to damage during production, and 2014 models have an additional fuel line assembly defect where foreign particles at the metal-to-plastic connections can cause weeping leaks anywhere along the line. A gear position indicator fault on 2014 vehicles can misrepresent the transmission as being in park when it is not, risking rollaway when a driver exits.
Going further back, the 2009 model has rear suspension tie rods that can fatigue and fail, and a software fault in the instrument cluster that can silence the seatbelt reminder chime. The 2007 model has anti-lock brake and stability control software that can fail to function correctly during high-speed braking or emergency maneuvers. The 2006 model has a power steering rack O-ring that can dislodge during prolonged hard left turns, causing a sudden reduction in steering assist, and ball joint nuts that can loosen and eventually allow suspension arm separation. The 2005 model has rear suspension tie rods that can corrode and fail, ball joint nuts that can loosen, and a door handle wiring fault that can open a door without occupant input at low speeds.
