Canadian recalls (5)

Show 5 Canadian recalls

Label

2022-12-13 · campaign 2022-708

Issue: On certain vehicles, the airbag warning labels are located on the headliner under the sun visors. Canadian regulations require information about the airbag system to be provided on both sides of the sun visor. Safety Risk: This small error does not affect safety. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. Maserati has made changes to ensure that all new vehicles have the airbag warning labels installed correctly.

Tires

2021-07-05 · campaign 2021-460 · 160 vehicles

Issue: On certain vehicles, the tire inflation pressure label lists the wrong cold tire pressure for the tires. The pressures are below what is recommended for the load limit listed. Canadian regulations require the recommended inflation pressures to be listed on the label. Safety Risk: This small error does not affect vehicle safety. The vehicles are equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) which will turn on the warning light if the tire pressure drops below the minimum safe inflation pressure. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. Maserati has made changes to ensure that all new vehicles have the correct tire inflation pressure on the label.

Seats and restraints

2017-01-20 · campaign 2017-033

On certain vehicles, the seat wiring harness layout may have been routed incorrectly during manufacturing. Through normal seat adjustment, this could cause the seat wiring harness to rub against metal points on the seat/seat frame assembly. Over time, this could lead to an inoperative seat adjustment system, and in some cases could result in an electrical short to ground between the seat wiring harness and the seat adjustment motor assembly, which could increase the risk of fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect routing and will secure and protect the seat wiring harness, and if necessary, install a new seat wiring harness.

Engine

2016-12-21 · campaign 2016-647 · 507 vehicles

Certain vehicles may contain an engine software defect which could cause the transmission to revert back to neutral or the engine to turn off and low speeds, such as in heavy traffic conditions. This could cause a loss of motive power which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the engine control module.

Accessories

2016-11-16 · campaign 2016-572 · 500 vehicles

On certain vehicles, the Entertainment-Telematics Module (ETM) may become inoperative when subjected to temperatures below Zero degrees Celsius. If this occurs, the backup camera image would not be displayed in the ETM which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property while reversing. Correction: Dealers update the Entertainment-Telematics Module.
