Ferrari bulletin 2608

Ferrari filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Aug 22, 2019, received Sep 3, 2019, about the equipment. It names 35 model years (2016–2019). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Ferrari 2608 a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the 2608 repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.

Which vehicles does 2608 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 35 model years: 2019 Ferrari 488 GTB, 2018 Ferrari 488 GTB, 2017 Ferrari 488 GTB, 2016 Ferrari 488 GTB, 2019 Ferrari 488 Pista, 2018 Ferrari 488 Pista and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
