Suspension
During a diagnostic performed at the Maserati dealership to repair parking brake failure, it was determined that the right strut tower/dome has a large crack. The vehicle has not been in any major accidents or driven over any potholes and it appears that this happened spontaneously. There were no warning lights to signal this issue. During the diagnostic it was also found that all 4 tires were bald, control arms needed to be replaced and the car was out of alignment. I have only driven the car approximately 7,000 miles since purchasing it used and the car was delivered with new tires and a flawless 150 point inspection from the dealer. This deformity has major safety concerns as it affects the suspension, alignment, tires and creates unsafe driving conditions. …

My vehicle went in for a 2 year service and a few safety recalls. Since the service, it is very difficult to ensure that the front doors are closed, even when slammed shut. Additionally, the vehicle has shifted itself into park at very low speed (less than 1 MPH) from both the d and r gears. Lastly, when exiting the vehicle, power does not turn off fully, even when the doors are locked and keys are outside of the car.
