Maserati bulletin MAS005189 MTB 26-12
Maserati filed this with NHTSA as a manufacturer communication dated Jun 24, 2026, received Jul 1, 2026, about the seats. It names 6 model years (2021–2026). 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.
