These vehicles were manufactured with faulty instrument cluster control module software which affects the functionality of the seat belt warning buzzer's ability to activate, thereby not properly warning when the seat belts are not engaged.
Risk: If the buzzer does not sound, occupants may fail to buckle the seat belts adequately, resulting in greater risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Fix: DEALERS WILL UPLOAD A NEW SOFTWARE INTO THE VEHICLE'S INSTRUMENT CLUSTER CONTROL MODULE UNIT. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING APRIL 2009. Owners may contact Maserati customer service at 1-877-696-2737.
