Ferrari California T Recalled for Possible Fire Risk
The 2016 Ferrari California T is being recalled to address a possible fuel leak in the engine compartment.
According to the recall notice, 185 Ferrari California T exotics are affected by the recall and were manufactured between September 8 and November 11, 2015. The recall is caused by a manufacturing defect on a part provided by a supplier, the Italian automaker noted in the filing to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
Ferrari also recalled around 800 units in the U.S. earlier this year to address an issue with faulty Takata airbags.
