Maserati Quattroporte: Vehicle Can Move Away After Driver Has Exited
Recall Summary Maserati is recalling 2,078 Quattroporte and Ghibli vehicles because the gearshift lever may appear to be in park when it's actually still in a drive gear, which could cause the vehicle to move on its own after the driver exits. The manufacturer will replace the door lock and update the software to prevent the vehicle from moving when the driver is not inside.
