What is wrong

Maserati is recalling 824 my 2009 granturismo vehicles equipped with the optional front parking sensor system. These vehicles were manufactured with faulty instrument cluster control module software which affects the functionality of the seat belt warning buzzer's ability to activate, thereby not properly warning when the seat belts are not engaged.

The risk

If the buzzer does not sound, occupants may fail to buckle the seat belts adequately, resulting in greater risk of injury in the event of a crash.

The fix

DEALERS WILL UPLOAD A NEW SOFTWARE INTO THE VEHICLE'S INSTRUMENT CLUSTER CONTROL MODULE UNIT. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING APRIL 2009. Owners may contact Maserati customer service at 1-[removed].

Notes from the manufacturer
