Maserati filed this with NHTSA as a manufacturer communication dated Sep 10, 2026, received Sep 18, 2026, about the unknown or other. It names 22 model years (2016–2027).

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Maserati MAS005254 MTB 26-14 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.
