Description of the problem | Takata recall.... The suspension on my 2005 maserati, model is a quadroportte, is giving way. When i go over any bumps on the road, the suspension is giving away. You can hear it rattle, and almost sounds as though, it's going to break in half. The car was taken to maserati and they "stone walled me a bit, but said that it has something to do with the strut bar, and or the suspension. This car has become very dangerous to drive and i want to alert the federal authorities. I would want maserati to recall this car to straighten out the problem and prevent loss of life. The suspension problem is on the right half of the maserati somewhere between the middle and back. We have had three technicians evaluate this problem and all say that maserati needs to recall the car. This is a manufacturers defect. |
