NOTE:  Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this  recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall. 

 

NOTE: Before starting this procedure, you MUST read these instructions carefully and completely.

 

MASERATI SAFETY RECALL NOTIFICATION

 

PERFORM THE PROCEDURE OUTLINED IN THIS TECHNICAL BULLETIN ON ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES BEFORE CUSTOMER DELIVERY OR THE NEXT TIME THE CAR IS IN THE SHOP FOR MAINTENANCE OR REPAIRS.

 

Maserati dealers must ensure recalls are completed after having been notified by Maserati North America, Inc. (MNA) that a safety-related defect or noncompliance exists in any motor vehicle or item of replacement equipment in the dealer’s possession at the time of notification.  In MNA’s case, this notification would typically be made by the issuance of a recall notification in the form of a Technical Bulletin. 

 

Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory.  The National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966, as amended (or in the case of Canadian vehicles, Motor Vehicle Safety Act S.C. 1993, as amended), requires you to complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery. This means that dealers cannot legally deliver new motor vehicles or new items of replacement equipment to consumers with an open recall.

 

Dealers should also consider this requirement to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for service.  This also pertains to vehicles in the Certified Pre-Owned program, and to items of replacement equipment. 

 

Finally, MNA dealers should not sell or use parts that have been recalled by MNA.  Please follow the specific instructions provided by MNA on the return or disposition of the parts.   

 

Maserati S.p.A. and MNA have determined that the above described vehicles were manufactured with an Air Bag Control Module (Fig.1) that may contain a voltage supply capacitor that was improperly manufactured.  If the voltage supply capacitor fails, the air bag may inadvertently deploy or not deploy at all.

Out of an abundance of caution, Maserati has decided to initiate this Voluntary Safety Recall #386 to replace the Air Bag Control Module with a new Module.

 

This repair procedure will be performed free of charge to the customer.

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL INFORMATION 

 

July 22, 2019

NHTSA Recall#: 19V461

 

Dear Maserati Dealer:

This notification is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

Maserati S.p.A. and Maserati North America, Inc. (MNA), have decided that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety exists in 2015-2018 Model Year Maserati Granturismo vehicles and 2016-2018 Model Year Maserati Granturismo Convertible vehicles.

Maserati S.p.A. and MNA have determined that the above-described vehicles were manufactured with an airbag electronic control unit (ECU) that may have a defective power supply capacitor.  The airbag ECU may inhibit a proper airbag deployment in a crash or command an inadvertent deployment.  An inhibited airbag deployment in a crash or an inadvertent deployment may result in an increased risk of occupant injury.

The remedy is to replace the airbag ECU on the affected vehicles.  The remedy will be performed free of charge to the vehicle owner.  We will, of course, reimburse you for the labor necessary to carry out this recall campaign.  The necessary components for this recall are currently available to dealers, and owners will be directed to call their dealers for repairs.

Maserati dealers must ensure safety recalls are completed after having been notified by MNA that a safety-related defect or noncompliance exists in any motor vehicle or item of replacement equipment in the dealer’s possession at the time of notification. In MNA’s case, this notification would typically be made by the issuance of a safety recall notification in the form of a Technical Bulletin.  

Under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966, as amended, if a safety recall campaign is announced by MNA, dealers must ensure that all recalls on new vehicles and new items of replacement equipment are completed BEFORE delivery to the consumer. This means that dealers may not legally deliver new motor vehicles or new items of replacement equipment to consumers with an open safety recall.

The Safety Act also prohibits dealers from selling or leasing the motor vehicle or item of replacement equipment, unless and until the open safety recall has been completed BEFORE delivery.

Under the terms of the Certified Pre-Owned (“CPO”) program, CPO vehicles with an open safety recall may not be sold or delivered to the consumer.

Finally, MNA dealers should not sell or use parts that have been recalled by MNA. Please follow the specific instructions provided by MNA on the return or disposition of the parts.

Obviously, if you have any of the affected vehicles in your stock, you must not sell them until you have performed the necessary repairs on the vehicle.

If you have already sold any of the vehicles with the indicated VIN in the enclosed instructions and have not yet sent in the new owner information to MNA, please do so at once so we may notify these owners.

 

Thank you for your cooperation.

 

Sincerely,

Maserati Vehicle Safety and Regulatory Compliance
