What it saysThe Rapid Updates (Campaigns) in the list below will be closed starting from November 18, 2024. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Maserati filed this with NHTSA as a manufacturer communication dated Nov 14, 2024, received Nov 20, 2024. It names 16 model years (2016–2024). A manufacturer communication 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.

What owners reported

Source: NHTSA complaint database

Owners of the 14 model years this bulletin names have filed 51 complaints with NHTSA since 2015.

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.

Quote the number at the service desk. It is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Maserati MAS004434 MCL 24-53 a recall?

No. A manufacturer communication 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 MAS004434 MCL 24-53 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 MAS004434 MCL 24-53 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 16 model years: 2024 Maserati Ghibli, 2023 Maserati Ghibli, 2022 Maserati Ghibli, 2021 Maserati Ghibli, 2020 Maserati Ghibli, 2019 Maserati Ghibli and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
