2017 MASERATI QUATTROPORTE Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2017 Maserati Quattroporte has 6 recalls, the most serious being a rear differential where a loose pinion gear can bind and cause the rear wheels to lock up, raising the risk of a crash. Two other drivetrain concerns also carry significant risk. On V6-equipped models, an engine software problem can cause the transmission to unexpectedly shift into neutral or park, or the engine to shut off without warning in stop-and-go traffic. On GTS models with the V8 3.8-liter engine, a fuel pump resistor can fail and cut engine power or stall the vehicle. Adjusting the front seats can cause the seat wiring harness to chafe against surrounding components and short, which can start a fire. There is also a visibility issue: in freezing temperatures, the infotainment module can shut down its backup camera, leaving the driver without a rear view while reversing.
