The 2014 Maserati Quattroporte GTS V8 has 2 recalls, both addressing the same electrical defect: a fault in the alternator-starter motor wiring harness that can cause a short circuit, potentially starting a fire or stalling the engine without warning while driving.
When the engine stalls unexpectedly at speed, the driver loses power assist for steering and braking, which raises the risk of a crash. The fire risk exists whether the vehicle is moving or parked.
