What can fail
Airbag warning labels are located only on the headliner under the sun visors instead of on both sides of each sun visor, as required by Canadian regulations.
What the fix does
The 2014 Maserati Quattroporte has 8 recalls, the most serious involving fuel lines that can leak at connection points along their length, creating a fire risk near ignition sources.
Several other concerns round out the list. The front seat wiring harness can rub when the seat is adjusted, potentially causing an electrical short and a fire. On the mechanical side, a rear tie-rod bolt may not have been fully tightened during assembly, allowing the tie-rod to separate from the hub carrier and causing sudden loss of steering control. The transmission gear selector on certain vehicles may not accurately show when the transmission is in Park, meaning the car can roll when the driver believes it is stationary and attempts to exit. The driver-side floor mat anchor can also break, allowing the mat to slide under the accelerator pedal and cause unintended acceleration. There is a label-only recall as well: airbag warning information on certain vehicles does not appear on both sides of the sun visor as required by Canadian regulations, a paperwork issue that does not affect how the airbags function.
