What are the defects?
Maserati is recalling Quattroporte & Granturismo vehicles to replace both rear tie-rods for toe-in adjustment because they may have been coated with an uneven thickness of paint, possibly leading to corrosion of the threaded ends.
What are the hazards?
If the threaded part of the tie-rods corrodes, proper toe-in adjustment could be difficult to achieve, which may compromise steering and handling of the vehicle.
What should consumers do?
Owners will be contacted directly. For further enquiries, owners can contact an authorised Maserati dealer.
