Transport Canada lists: 458 2010–2015 · 488 2016–2019

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the braking system could leak brake fluid. If this happens, there could be a partial or total loss of braking.

Why it matters

Reduced braking or a loss of brakes can increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Ferrari will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development and Ferrari will send you a second notice once a final repair is available. Ferrari advises that if the "Low Brake Fluid" warning message appears on the vehicle dashboard, you should pull off the road as soon as it is safe to do so. You should then contact Ferrari Roadside Assistance and get towed to the nearest dealer.

Airbag

14 June 2018

Transport Canada lists: 458 2012 · California 2012 · FF 2012

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger frontal airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the passenger frontal airbag assembly. Note: Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. The recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace airbag inflators before their function would be affected.

Engine

23 May 2012

Transport Canada lists: 458 2012

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the engine crankshaft may have been incorrectly manufactured and could fail. If this occurs, the engine could seize, suddenly rendering the vehicle inoperable. Loss of vehicle propulsion, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will either repair or replace the engine, depending on the vehicle owner's preference.
