SUMMARY:

MaseratieBay logo North America, Inc. (MaseratieBay logo) is recalling certain model year 2014 Quattroporte GTS V8 vehicles manufactured October 1, 2013, to December 31, 2013.

REMEDY:

MaseratieBay logo will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicle to verify that the starter motor cable has a properly installed protective cap and that the cable is adequately secured.

If not, the starter motor cable assembly will be replaced.

These repairs will be performed free of charge.

The recall began on November 11, 2015.
