NHTSA recall 23V570000
Structure › Critical fasteners
Maserati MC20 Cielo
The defect
Maserati North America, Inc. (Maserati) is recalling certain 2023 MC20 Cielo vehicles. The windshield frame stud sealant, which retains the stud connecting the windshield frame to the body, may not have been installed, which can reduce body structure performance and roof strength. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 216, "Roof Crush Resistance" and 214, "Side Impact Protection."
The risk
A body structure that does not perform as intended and a roof with insufficient strength may not adequately protect occupants in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The remedy
Dealers will inspect the windshield frame mounting stud and install sealant, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed September 24, 2023. Owners may contact Maserati customer service at 1-877-696-2737. Maserati's number for this recall is 662.
