What's wrong?

The low pressure fuel pump on the 2015-2017 Maserati Quattroporte GTS feeds gasoline from the tank toward the engine at the pressure the engine system expects. The fuel pump resistor helps control that pump's electrical load, so fuel delivery stays steady while the V8 3.8 liter engine is running.

On affected Quattroporte GTS vehicles, the resistor can wear out from heat and electrical current over repeated drive cycles. Maserati traced the issue to cycle time and temperature fatigue when the current reaches the resistor's limit. When the resistor fails, the fuel pump can stop delivering fuel correctly, which can cause a loss of engine power or an engine stall.

There is no warning sign before failure. The engine can lose power or stall without a prior light, sound, or drivability change that gives the driver time to react.

Who's affected?

Covers the 2015, 2016, and 2017 Quattroporte model years, all tied to the same fuel pump component.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific sedan is included.

What's the safety risk?

A stall increases the risk of a crash because the vehicle stops running while in traffic. There is no warning sign before failure, so treat any stalling as a reason to pull over safely and call a Maserati dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Maserati dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2015-2017 Maserati Quattroporte is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Maserati dealer to schedule the free fuel pump resistor cable assembly replacement that fixes the loss-of-power and stall risk.
  3. Reference recall number 17V610 and Maserati recall 359 when you call.
  4. Bring the recall notice if you received one.
  5. Pull over safely if the engine loses power or stalls before the repair is complete, then contact the Maserati dealer before driving again.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Maserati technician replaces the fuel pump resistor cable assembly for the low pressure fuel pump circuit. The replacement parts and labor are free under the recall. Because the remedy is available, owners can ask a franchised Maserati dealer to perform the recall repair. Maserati has a general reimbursement plan on file for this campaign. If you already paid for a related fuel pump resistor cable repair before recall service, ask the service desk how to submit your documentation under that plan.

Frequently asked questions

What is recall 17V610?

Recall 17V610 covers 439 2015-2017 Maserati Quattroporte GTS vehicles with a V8 3.8 liter engine. A resistor in the low pressure fuel pump resistor can fail, causing loss of engine power or a stall. Maserati dealers replace the fuel pump resistor cable assembly for free.

What should I do if my 2015-2017 Maserati Quattroporte is on this recall?

Check your VIN to confirm your specific vehicle is included in recall 17V610. If it is, contact a franchised Maserati dealer to schedule replacement of the fuel pump resistor cable assembly. Reference recall 17V610 or Maserati recall number 359 when you call.

Is the recall repair free?

Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair the defect at no cost. Maserati dealers replace the fuel pump resistor cable assembly free of charge, including parts and labor, for vehicles included in recall 17V610.

What is the safety risk?

The safety risk is a stall. If the low pressure fuel pump resistor fails, the Quattroporte can lose engine power or stall, which increases crash risk. Confirm the VIN first, then arrange the free dealer repair if your vehicle is included.

What if I bought my Maserati Quattroporte used?

The free recall repair still applies. Recall coverage follows the vehicle, not the first owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your Quattroporte is included, then call a franchised Maserati dealer with recall 17V610 or Maserati recall number 359.
