So, you buy a Ferrari expecting it to be faultless, but it isn’t.
Ferrari just announced the “recall” of a total of 206 units of the models 458 Italia and California due to a defect in the crankshaft, that not only causes vibrations, but can also seriously damage the engine.
“At this time we’re contacting all the customers that might be affected by the problem, asking them to bring the car to a dealer so we can fix the issue.” said a spokesman for the Italian maker quoted by British “Autocar”.
13.000 of these 2 models have been produced so far, which means that 1.6% of these will now receive a new crankshaft, an amendment that should take 2 or 3 days and will be a warranty repair.
