Maserati Spyder Recalls

The Maserati Spyder has 6 recalls covering the 2002 and 2004 model years, with the most serious being a steering assembly defect on 2002 models where two of four mounting bolts can work loose during aggressive driving and cause the driver to lose steering control.

The 2002 model year carries the heaviest recall load across both steering and fuel systems. Beyond the steering bolt issue, the power steering pressure hose on 2002 models can contact the exhaust manifold, leak fluid onto the hot surface, and start an engine fire. Fuel system integrity is also a concern on 2002 vehicles: rubber fuel line sections can deteriorate and pull away from their metal fittings, and separately, fuel lines can disconnect outright in the engine compartment. Both of these conditions allow raw fuel to leak near ignition sources, raising the risk of an underhood fire. The 2004 model year has its own fuel hose concern, where the hoses can soften and separate from metal fittings, again allowing fuel to leak into the engine compartment where it can ignite.
