Overview

2014 Maserati Quattroporte

The 2014 Maserati Quattroporte offers Italian luxury and performance, but potential buyers should be aware of its significant recall history. While consumer complaints are notably absent, nine recall campaigns, particularly those related to fuel system integrity and potential unintended vehicle movement, warrant careful consideration. This generation of Quattroporte combines an 8-cylinder, 3.8-liter premium fuel engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, delivering a combined EPA-estimated 16 MPG. Its safety ratings are not available, adding another layer of uncertainty for used car shoppers.

Critical Failure Risk

Recalls indicate issues with fuel lines, potentially leading to leaks. This poses a fire risk and requires immediate attention.

Early detection can help you avoid a $500-$1,500 repair.
