## What is wrong

Maserati North America, Inc. \(Maserati\) is recalling certain model year 2014\-2016 Quattroporte and Ghibli vehicles manufactured February 1, 2013, to September 18, 2015.  During the assembly process, the rear tie\-rod to hub assembly attaching bolt may not have been properly tightened.


## What can happen

An improperly tightened rear tie\-rod to hub carrier assembly attaching bolt may allow the tie\-rod to separate from the hub carrier, resulting in a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Maserati will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the left and right rear tie\-rod to hub carrier assembly attaching bolts to verify that they are properly tightened, replacing the rear tie\-rod to hub carrier assembly as necessary, free of charge.  The recall is expected to begin during July 2016.  Owners may contact Maserati customer service at 1\-877\-696\-2737.  Maserati's number for this recall is 303.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
