Maserati Calls Back 59 MC20 Cielo Supercars Over Windshield Woes – Here’s What You Need to Know
by AutoExpert | 17 August, 2023
Attention, Maserati MC20 Cielo owners! Maserati has issued a recall for 59 of these sleek supercars, and it's time to check if yours is one of them.
Here's the scoop: Maserati discovered that approximately 8% of these vehicles might be missing the sealant that connects the windshield frame to the body. This tiny detail can have a big impact, potentially reducing the body's performance and weakening the roof.
The problem was first recognized by the Italian automaker on June 30th, 2023, and a full investigation was launched immediately. By July 26th, Maserati determined that the missing sealant could indeed compromise the roof strength.
Worried about your car? If your MC20 Cielo was built after July 3rd, 2023, you're likely in the clear. Maserati started visual inspections for the stud and sealant presence from that date onward. However, if your car falls into the affected range, keep an eye on your mailbox. You should receive an owner notification letter by September 24th. Or, if you prefer to know sooner, just contact your local Maserati dealership or check the NHTSA website.
This isn't the first windshield-related hiccup for the MC20 Cielo; back in April, Maserati recalled 11 examples due to issues with the bonding of metal and carbon fiber components. Let's hope this recall puts an end to any windshield worries!
