MASERATI Complaints

WHEN I WOULD RAPIDLY ACCELERATE THE GAS PEDAL WOULD STICK, CAR WOULD LURCH FORWARD WHILE CONTINUING TO ACCELERATE. IF I DIDN'T IMMEDIATELY HIT THE BRAKES AND TURN OFF CAR I COULD HAVE EASILY LOST CONTROL WHILE CONTINUING ACCELERATING . THIS HAPPENED TWICE I THEN BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE MASERATI DEALER THE COLLECTION IN CORAL GABLES . I UNDERSTAND THIS MAY HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE WITH THE MASERATI GHIBLI .

MASERATI IS TOTALLY AWARE THAT THEIR FRONT IN IS SO BAD FROM THE FACTORY THAT THEY ARE NOW REPAIRING THIS MASSIVE REPAIR AT THEIR EXPENSE. HOWEVER THIS WEARS OUT ALL THE TIRES IN LESS THAN 10000 MILES. THE TREAD IS PERFECT AND THE TIRE HAS THREADS COMING THROUGH ON THE SIDE. THIS IS A NATIONAL ISSUE AND IS UNKNOWN TO ANYONE AND I ASSURE YOU THAT THERE IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. AS NOBODY CHECKS THEIR TIRES WITH PERFECT TREAD AT LESS THAN 10K MILES AND BY CHANCE THEY DON'T WARRANT THE TIRES. THEY HAVE KNOWN THIS AND HAVE NO TOLD ANYONE AND COMES FROM FACTORY THAT WAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 MASERATI GHIBLI. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE FLOORMAT MOVED AND BECAME TRAPPED BETWEEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE CARPET. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED UNCONTROLLABLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND REPAIRED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V122000 (VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

TAKATA RECALL.... THE SUSPENSION ON MY 2005 MASERATI, MODEL IS A QUADROPORTTE, IS GIVING WAY. WHEN I GO OVER ANY BUMPS ON THE ROAD, THE SUSPENSION IS GIVING AWAY. YOU CAN HEAR IT RATTLE, AND ALMOST SOUNDS AS THOUGH, IT'S GOING TO BREAK IN HALF. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO MASERATI AND THEY "STONE WALLED ME A BIT, BUT SAID THAT IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE STRUT BAR, AND OR THE SUSPENSION. THIS CAR HAS BECOME VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND I WANT TO ALERT THE FEDERAL AUTHORITIES. I WOULD WANT MASERATI TO RECALL THIS CAR TO STRAIGHTEN OUT THE PROBLEM AND PREVENT LOSS OF LIFE. THE SUSPENSION PROBLEM IS ON THE RIGHT HALF OF THE MASERATI SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE MIDDLE AND BACK. WE HAVE HAD THREE TECHNICIANS EVALUATE THIS PROBLEM AND ALL SAY THAT MASERATI NEEDS TO RECALL THE CAR. THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT.

I PURCHASED THE 2015 MASERATI GHIBLI SQ4 NOV 2015, AND AFTER 2000 MILES THE CAR HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR CONDITION STUCK IN DEFROST MODE. TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALER FOR SERVICE REPAIR AND THEY FOUND THE ISSUE WITH THE AIR CONDITION SOLENOID THAT WAS REPLACED. THEN I STARTED HAVING TOO MUCH FRONT WINDSHIELD DEFROST AND IT COVERS MY FRONT VIEW. TO REPRODUCE THE CONCERN START THE CAR AND OPEN UP THE 4 WINDOWS DRIVE UP FOR MORE THAN 15 MINUTES, THEN STOP THE CAR CLOSE THE WINDOWS AND TURN OF THE ENGINE. COME BACK AFTER 10 MIN OR MORE START THE ENGINE, ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS AND START DRIVING. YOU'LL FEEL THE HEAT INSIDE FROM THE ENGINE INSIDE THE CAR, AND YOU'LL START SEEING LARGE AMOUNT OF DEFROST INSIDE THE WINDSHIELD EVEN THE WINDOWS ROLLED DOWN. I HAD TO KEEP TURNING IN FRONT AND BACK DEFROST AND THE AIR CONDITION. TURN OFF THE AIR CONDITION KEEP DRIVING THEN THE DEFROST WILL COME BACK AGAIN AND THE ONLY WAY TO ELIMINATE THE DEFROST YOU HAVE TO KEEP BOTH DEFROST AND AIR CONDITION ON ALL THE TIME. THE SERVICE SHOP STATED THIS IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. PLEASE ADVICE!
