Maserati Troubleshooting
Maserati is an Italian luxury vehicle manufacturer. Established on 1 December 1914, in Bologna, Italy, the company's headquarters are now in Modena, and its emblem is a trident. The company has been owned by Stellantis since 2021. Maserati was initially associated with Ferrari.
Automobile Troubleshooting
Diagnose a Check Engine Light
“Check Engine“, “Service Engine Soon” or “Reduced Power” lights or warning messages on your dash mean your car’s computer has detected a problem with the engine or transmission and stored a trouble code in its memory. In most cases, the problem is caused by a faulty sensor that you can probably replace yourself. First, though, you have to get the trouble code from the computer.
Many auto parts stores will read the trouble code for free, or you can buy a scan tool/code reader and pull the codes yourself. Once you have the code, search the internet for advice on fixing that particular code.
Fix Poor Acceleration
Your car’s computer relies on the Mass Airflow Sensor (MAF) to detect the volume, mass, and temperature of the air entering your engine. It then calculates the proper amount of fuel to add. However, if the sensing elements inside the MAF are dirty, the computer gets skewed readings and miscalculates how much fuel to add, and that causes performance issues.
Most MAF sensors can be restored to full operating conditions with a simple cleaning. To clean your MAF sensor, buy a can of MAF Sensor Cleaner from any auto parts store. Remove the sensor from the air duct by loosening the worm drive clamps with a screwdriver or socket. Then aim the spray cleaner directly at the sensing elements inside the MAF housing. Soak the sensing elements but don’t touch them with your fingers, rag, or brush—they’ll break. Let the solvent dry, then reinstall the MAF.
Fix a Sticking Car Door
In hot weather, the sponge rubber weatherstripping on the door can stick to the door frame, making it hard to open. Here’s how to fix it:
• Start by cleaning weatherstrip residue off the door frame with a household spray cleaner.
• Then coat the weatherstrip with silicone or dry Teflon lube.
• Spray the lubricant onto a rag and wipe it onto the foam weatherstripping, making sure you wet the entire surface.
• Let the solvent dry and your sticking door problems will be gone.
Fix a Slow Moving Power Window
A sticky, slow-moving power window can be really frustrating, especially when you pull up to a toll booth or drive-thru window. You can usually fix the problem by lubricating the window channels. But if you don’t fix the problem, the slow-moving window will stress the window regulator mechanism until it breaks. Here’s the fix.
• Buy an aerosol can of dry Teflon spray. It sprays on as a liquid but dries to a white slippery Teflon powder.
• Shake the can vigorously to mix the Teflon particles with the solvent.
• Insert the straw into the nozzle and aim the spray into the window channels.
• Press the trigger and soak the front and rear channels until the spray runs down into the door.
• Wait a few minutes for the solvent to evaporate, then operate the window up and down several times to spread the dry Teflon spray through the channels.
Unclog a Windshield Washer Jet
If you activate your windshield washers and washer fluid comes out of one jet but not the other, the wonky jet is probably clogged. Most DIYs try unclogging the jet by inserting a pin. That rarely works. Here’s a better way.
• Pop the hood and locate the rubber tube going up to the problem jet.
• Disconnect the tube by twisting it off. Then shoot compressed air backward through the jet. That’ll dislodge the clog and shoot the crud out.
• Reconnect the tube to the jet and you’ll be in business. If the fluid doesn’t come out of either jet, follow this troubleshooting technique.
• If the diagnoses turn up a seized washer pump, replace it yourself.
Fix a Dim Headlight
Most DIYers think a dim headlight is caused by a poor connection on the power side of the circuit. That’s possible, but in most cases, the dim headlight is actually caused by corrosion on the ground connection. To fix this problem you have to check the electrical connector for corrosion and then clean the ground connection. Here’s how:
• Remove the electrical connector that plugs into the headlight. Look for signs of corrosion or melted plastic from excessive heat.
• If you find corrosion, clean it using electrical contact cleaner and a small wire brush.
• If the connector is melted, purchase a new pigtail headlight connector from any auto parts store or dealer parts department and splice it into the wiring harness.
• Next, clean the headlight ground connection. To locate the connection, simply follow the ground wire to its termination on the frame or fender.
• Remove the screw or bolt, clean off the rust, apply a dab of dielectric grease and reconnect.
• Turn on the headlights. If they’re bright, you’re done. If not, you’ll need a professional diagnosis.
Fix a Paint Chip
Every car gets paint chips from flying gravel. If you ignore the chips, the metal will rust and blister and you’ll wind up with major rust problems that cost a small fortune to fix. Avoid those problems by filling paint chips with touch-up paint before they start to rust. You’ll need touch-up paint from the dealer or an auto parts store, wax and grease remover, and a rag.
• Clean the chipped area with wax and grease remover.
• Dab on a small dot of touch-up paint. The paint won’t match exactly, but it’ll look a heck of a lot better than rust!
• Wait the recommended time before applying a second coat.
• Wait 30 days for the paint to cure, then wax the area.

We have purchase our first ever Maserati, after many years as a Rang Rover driver.Apart from the outstanding engine in the Levante, I am hugely surprised by the comfort and handling of the car, there is no comparison between the two SUV vehicles, the Levante is far superior.What crowned the purchase was the attention to detail undertaken by the sales executive Rosie Cox. She approached all of our needs and questions with full clarity, no hidden sales jargon, allowing a smooth purchase, with no Hic ups.What has been especially pleasing is the amount of follow up contact Rosie has had with us, from making sure we arrived home safely, to regular checks on the vehicle and our satisfaction.Great car, with a fantastic team at Graypaul Maserati Birmingham, a special thank you to Rosie, who goes the extra mile without being asked!
I wish I could give them zero star , I got 2018 Maserati , 1 year old car , most of my times waisted at service, I have been to the service department for bunch of noises over 6 times , I called their customer service I said lemon law says I can return the car , guess what , they offered me 1 time payment on my car very funny spending 80k on my car and one year every 2 months be at the service drive loaner car for 1 week , 2 weeks , 3 weeks and at the end they cant find a noise , my break has a problem, I had to change front tires cuz they got flat for the garbage break , one year old tire , they said its dangerous to drive even , I was so excited when I got the car now I feel like Im driving a garbage car , has noise from everywhere, they dont do anything cuz its under warranty they dont want to spend money as soon as warranty over they call you hey we figured out the noise pay 10k so we can fix it , Im going to sue Maserati to learn how to treat their customers and when you have been to the service with a brand new car zero mileage over 6 times they better take their car back . Watch me Maserati . Its my turn .
The issue that I have experienced was: I did lease 2017 Maserati Lavente S on 11/11/2018 . When a car has about 3000 mil,my rare brakes broke down ( after making complaint to dealer ,they decided to change under warranty....they said that they never see that problem before!!!)Today my car has only 16000 mil and l still have a problems with brakes,my front tires are completely (probably alignment,that none one see in dealer during car service???) bold,my design front seat is popped,my color paint around car front headlight coming off. An beginning of october2020 I was driving the car in a rainy day,at the middle of the road car shut down completely, I have to call Maserati road assistance to send a towing.I was waiting over 4 hours .Maserati towing never showed up ( they said that they are too busy!!!everything is documented in Maserati road assistance)With a price of 102.000 dollars I was expecting �little bit � better quality .but in that case price does not match a quality!!!
THEY SOLD ME A RECALL. I LOST IN COURT BECAUSE THEIR LAWYER TOLD THE JUDGE THAT ONLY THE NHTSA CAN FINE CAR COMPANIES. SO NOW IM GOING TO TAKE IT TO THE NHTSA. MASERATIS ARE TRASH
HI EveryoneI bought Maserati Ghibli from H.R Owen 2016 Summer, since than i am regret to get this from them.1: When winter came , wheel start knocking when turn full right or left, its look like broken something from inside, according to trading standard its MISS SOLD and i could go to COURT, because they didnt tell me this problem even they didnt know till people start calling for complaint and bring cars back. But they found briliant idea to cover this. This annoying noise becasue CHARACTERISTIC from common fault. One of they engineer told me its common fault and they dont know how to solve it.2: After 4 months old brand new car both rear tyres get bolt, when i went back to service , they told me wheel aliment or agliment has been fault and needs to be repair and NOT COVER WARRANTY!!! Reason is i hit to curve ?? Can i believe that? I have 3 more car and few times i hit the curve when parking, nothing happened , kangoo , jaguar and mercedes but maserati gave fault since than i change 3 times tyres because they not cover as a warranty.3: When my service has became a due they send me email and i told them i just bought house now will do service few months latter, they didnt warn me about anything if service they must do late can cause something, Anyway after a few month i get contact with them and also mean time car give another fault Diesel Particular filter has been full, Guest what because of late service they not cover this , and i just told them dont do anything to my car i will come and collect. I been another place to finish my service.They are very big liar and what ever happened to car its not cover warranty, now this case will go to court.If you think to buy maserati do not buy ghibli , also never work with HR OWEN they are worse than everyone!!!!
THE REAL STORY about Maserati - Vulcano ?I Know all about that ! Untrustworthy , Unreliable , Negative ! To Trust maserati , means to distrust your own mind ! your money your decision but you has been warned !!! VULCANO Domenico .
An everyday Ferrari , classic , executive , responsive , passionate , sexiest car in the world.
Underrated car. Extremely underrated. I dont get why people hate it and say that BMW is the best. BMW is just uncomfortable and trashy. This is like comparing PORSCHE to Ferrari. 2 different cars with different specifications, origins, technologies, and designs. Great car to be honest.
Probably the worst warranty support on any car I have owned. Bear in mind if you buy a car there are very few dealers, those that exist do not know the cars particularly well. The aftersales support is awful as it goes to a foreign helpdesk who are not native English speakers and its highly unlikely they will understand the issue. Expect to be put out repeatedly and expect it to cost you money. Probably better to buy a BMW...

I enjoy my Maserati, it has a soul and is great to drive which puts a smile on my face. Perfect it is not, the manufacturers dont keep many parts in the UK so a repair might take a while they come from Italy. Dealers are hit and miss particularly with the service and warranty work!German cars will win you over for reliability and all round good egg but loose out on the character which is why you buy a Maserati !:)If you love your Maserati youll give it 5*, but if you dont youd only give them 3*
I bought this product on sale and i love it! The product is so much fun and its a great conversation starter. All my friends are really enjoying it as well, which has made me the coolest person in the group.
Love my Stradale
NEVER BUY THIS CAR!We bought Ghibli, its a total disaster !!!!From the begging car was giving a lot of problems. After 30k miles!!!!!!!! Car had a very big issue!!! Had to send it to Sicily to repair. Guess what !!!! Problems with engine !!! They dont change any parts for your engine - you have to change it !!!! Warranty doesnt cover the car anymore!!!! To change an engine plus work - 24k!!!!! For a car of 100k with 30k miles!!!! Spoke with Maserati - they said its not their problem! Because car was serviced not in their official shops!!! (And it was serviced in Malta but a mechanic with license to serve these specific types of cars). So they will always find the way to send you their crap and charge you as much as possible and once you want proper service - you will NEVER get it with them. Please DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON GARBAGE CARS!!! You wont even get ANY DECENT SERVICE!!!
PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE OR LEASE THIS VEHICLE!!!! For the sake of your money, its best to avoid this car at all cost. This is because I leased a 2018 Levante, and theres issues everywhere with this car!! The maintenance of this car is EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE, and everything you fix or need to change will cost you out of pocket. The dealership depending on which one you go will not help you much. Unless you are tempted to get hooked by them and get you to buy or lease another of their trashy vehicle to lock you for a 3 year lease. Be very careful!
Very very Bad experience with Maserati ghibli.... no buy this garbage please go to Bmw or Mercedes, but no this brand...e una marca di merda e la vogliono portare a livello di marche tedesche... vergogna no buy please....
Maserati driver, Levante owner....one of the best car in the world!
Never had any issues so far. Great cars!
if you dont want to get scammed, DONT BUY from The Bay and dont buy a Maserati watch from them. i got a watch from my pops for his bday for $500 and not even two months later, the watch broke out of nowhere, glass just cracked. Went to the bay for them to tell us that they didnt have anymore in stock and since its been past 30 days to go Maserati for the warranty. Emailed Maserati because theres no number to call and they said they cover warrant bought from them directly so go back to the bay. PS their warranty is a joke, going to post a video on youtube about that specifically. At the end of the day, neither of these businesses want to fix the issue, so if youre think of shopping at The Bay or buying a Maserati watch, DONT. you will just get screwed and robbed for your money! i will never shop from the Bay again and or buy any Maserati products. Scammers!
My Maserati Ghibli is the best Maserati ever. Elegant, fast and innovative at the same. I counldnt buy a better car.
