- Problem
- Maserati North America, Inc. (Maserati) is recalling certain model year 2017 Quattroporte, Ghible, and Levante vehicles manufactured July 1, 2016, to November 14, 2016. In temperatures below freezing, the entertainment telematics module (ETM) may place itself in a protection mode, disabling the back-up camera.

- Remedy
- Maserati will notify owners, and dealers will update the ETM software, free of charge. The recall began on December 30, 2016. Owners may contact Maserati customer service at 1-877-696-2737. Maserati's number for this recall is 327.

What this recall means for you
In temperatures below freezing, the entertainment telematics module (ETM) on certain 2017 vehicles built between July 1 and November 14, 2016 may enter a protection mode that disables the back-up camera. Without a working camera, it can be harder to see people or objects behind the vehicle.
This increases the risk of injury or a crash while backing up. Maserati will notify affected owners, and an authorized dealer will update the ETM software at no cost to you.
Contact Maserati customer service at 1-877-696-2737 and reference recall number 327. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls.
