Maserati service campaign RAPID UPDATE 824

It names 1 model year (2024). A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationGrecale – BCM Parameter Alignment. Due to a manufacturing anomaly, on some vehicles the timing parameter for locking the doors with the keys inside the passenger compartment may not be correctly configured. The function, known as the “surfer maneuver�, can be selected by the customer and may therefore not be correctly set.
