Timing chains needed replaced at 60k miles due to stretching and also the hydraulic tensioners broke. Entire front of engine needs to come off and so does the top half in order to replace. This is a pretty common problem as the chains are not as durable as they should be. In addition to that, the hydraulic tensioners run on oil pressure, so if you are even a little bit low on oil, the tension can be lessened and then the timing chains will jump teeth causing out of time issue.

After 8 months the steering rack started making a noise I can only compare to a herd of cows. Now 5th steering rack... Maserati Europe hq were extremely unhelpful and only on 5th steering rack being required did Maranello inform me that it had been redesigned.. Maserati told me I would require an extended warranty once the manufacturers warranty expired.. I argued that the original issue was still unresolved so this was an ongoing problem however Maserati would not accept responsible.. my car has been back for recall and repair issues a minimum of 15 times and always have to wait an average of 8 weeks to be booked in for repairs..

Power steering fault red light. Advised refresh SW. Not resolved the issue. Dealer needs to have the fault active for analysis. Update: It then happened once again as I was near the dealer so I drove there and left engine running so they could see. Again couldn’t solve it (light went out). Didn’t happen again.
