Stellantis (Maserati North America, Inc.) is recalling approximately 58 units of its 2021 to 2022 Quattroporte and Ghibli vehicles. According to the recall, those vehicles may have a fuel line sensor housing that cracks and leaks fuel.
A fuel leak may cause an engine to stall, increasing the risk of a crash. In the presence of an ignition source, a fuel leak also increases the risk of fire.
The suspect period was determined to be from April 13, 2021, through August 25, 2021, when the suspect part was no longer used in vehicle production. The suspect period was determined using part traceability and vehicle production records. 30 Quattroporte and 28 Ghibli models are affected.
