Maserati North America is recalling about 7,438 model year 2005-2008 Quattroporte, 2008 Granturismo, and 2008 Alfa Romeo 8C vehicles.
The rear tie rod assemblies may have insufficient anti-corrosion material applied, allowing them to weaken and possibly fail. Failure of the tie rods may result in a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.
Maserati will notify owners and dealers will replace the tie rod assemblies. The recall is expected to begin by the end of June 2013.
Customers may contact Maserati at 1-877-696-2737. Maserati's recall campaign number is 205.
