What's wrong?
The rear and side windows on the 2025-2026 Ferrari 12CILINDRI are part of the vehicle's glazing system. That glass has to let enough light through so the driver has a clear view to the sides and rear. The federal glazing rule in this recall is FMVSS No. 205, which sets light transmittance requirements for passenger cars.
On affected 12CILINDRI vehicles, Ferrari installed black privacy side and rear windows built from the wrong technical configuration for the US market. Those windows have less than 70% light transmittance. The darker glass can obscure the driver's visibility, which is why the vehicles do not meet the required glazing standard.
This is not a wear-out failure, so there is no warning sign before failure. What an owner can notice is the dark rear or side glass itself, especially when checking visibility through those windows. Ferrari's repair is to replace the black rear and side windows with conforming windows homologated for the US market.
