Ferrari's safety recall campaign number is 52.

The heat created by the engine could cause possible deformation of the rear right hand and left hand wheelhouse and heat shield assemblies. The assembly could come excessively close to the exhaust system causing the bonding adhesive used in the assembly to overheat and produce smoke. Under particularly high ambient operating temperature this could cause the adhesive to ignite, resulting in a vehicle fire and/or rendering the vehicle inoperable and possibly resulting in a crash. Dealers will remove the existing heat shields and bonding adhesive from the right hand and left hand rear wheelhouses, and install new protective heat shields on the right hand and left hand rear wheelhouses. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on September 2, 2010. 10V-389 NOVEMBER 2009 -- Ferrari is recalling certain model year 1995 through 1999 Ferrari 355 and 355 F1 vehicles. Independent automobile repair facilities may have improperly installed certain screw clamps that are located in close proximity to the fuel lines and that fasten the water sleeve to the thermostat connection. The improper installation of these screw clamps may damage the fuel supply pipes. Fluid could leak into the engine compartment, causing smoke and, in some circumstances, a fire, rendering the vehicle inoperable and possibly resulting in a crash. Dealers will install a new fuel divider block, which will serve to provide a greater distance between these screw clamps and the fuel lines. This will eliminate the possibility of any damage to the fuel supply pipes which could cause fluid leakage. This service will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during December 2009. 09V-447 FEBRUARY 2009 -- Ferrari is recalling 1,950 my 2005-2007 f40 spider vehicles. The defect involves the hydraulic hoses for the convertible top that are located inside of the engine compartment. The heat from the engine may cause hair-line cracks to form in the hoses which may result in fluid leakage from the convertible top hydraulic system. This leakage in turn, will cause the convertible top warning light to illuminate and if not remedied, could ultimately leak fluid into the engine compartment causing smoke and a fire, rendering the vehicle inoperable and possibly resulting in a crash. Dealers will install protective heat shields over the convertible top hydraulic lines to insulate them from the heat of the enginecompartment. This service will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during March 2009. Owners may contact Ferrari at 201-816-2600. 09V-048 |
