What's wrong?

The fuel delivery hoses on the 2014-2015 Maserati Quattroporte and Ghibli carry gasoline from the fuel system toward the engine. These hoses need tight end fittings so fuel stays inside the line while the engine is running and fuel pressure changes. The crimp is the squeezed metal connection that locks the hose to its fitting and seals that joint.

On affected vehicles, the fuel delivery hoses were not crimped correctly during assembly. A weak or uneven crimp can leave the hose fitting less secure than designed. When fuel pressure builds, that connection can loosen or fail to seal, allowing gasoline to escape from the hose area.

There is no warning sign before failure. Because the defect is inside the hose connection, an owner should not count on seeing or feeling a change before the hose fitting stops sealing properly.

Who's affected?

Covers the Ghibli and Quattroporte across the 2014 and 2015 model years, all tied to the same fuel-system hose, line, pipe, and fitting component.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific sedan is included.

What's the safety risk?

An improper crimp can let fuel leak from the fuel delivery line. Fuel near an ignition source increases fire risk. If your VIN is included, schedule the repair soon; the risk comes from leaked fuel meeting an ignition source. Repair will be free at any franchised Maserati dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2014-2015 Maserati Quattroporte or Ghibli is included in this recall.
  2. Contact Maserati customer service at 1-877-696-2737 if you have not received the owner letter.
  3. Schedule service with a franchised Maserati dealer for the free fuel-delivery-line replacement that fixes the improperly crimped fuel hoses.
  4. Bring the recall notice if you have it. If not, reference recall number 14V654 and Maserati recall 256 when you call.
  5. Park away from ignition sources and avoid driving if you smell fuel before the repair is complete.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Maserati technician replaces the entire fuel delivery line, the hose assembly tied to the improperly crimped fuel delivery hoses described in recall 14V654. The repair record says the recall began in October 2014, but this section did not receive a current remedy status. If your VIN is included, confirm the campaign with a Maserati dealer before scheduling. Once the dealer repair is available for your vehicle, parts and labor are covered under the recall.
