I was driving and I heard a loud noise the axle broke causing me to lose control and crash into 2 park cars. I at first thought I was hit by another car but upon further research I discovered I was not hit. When we purchased the car we were told there were no prior accidents or repairs. The accident revealed various parts of the car to have bondo proving prior repairs were done. We were deceived into buying this car. If we were not lied to and were told the truth about prior repairs we would’nt of bought the car.

August 2022 CrashInjury

Bought the 2017 levante in june 2017 and since september 2017, have experience multiple occurrences of the vehicle "popping" into neutral while either in drive or reverse at different speeds. Our local dealership/service manager is aware and has on record, they've experience the issue first hand. At some point in early december 2017, local service manager was told by maserati na, a fix would be available by end of 2017. It is now april 2018 and maserati na has no time-table for a "fix".
