FERRARI/ENGINE GROUND STRAP

NHTSA #02V091000 · Electrical System — 12V/24V/48V Battery · NHTSA notice

Reported March 21, 2002 · FERRARI NORTH AMERICA

Potentially affected: 211 vehicles

Owners notified April 15, 2002 · Vehicles built July 1, 2001 – October 31, 2001 (per NHTSA)

Defect description

ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE ENGINE GROUND STRAP WAS MANUFACTURED IMPROPERLY. AS A RESULT OF THE IMPROPER "CRIMPING" OF THE GROUND STRAP CONNECTORS TO THE BRAIDED GROUND STRAP, THE ENGINE GROUND STRAP MAY NOT PROVIDE THE PROPER ELECTRICAL GROUND BETWEEN THE ENGINE AND THE CHASSIS.

Safety consequence

IF THE STRAP FAILS TO PROVIDE THE PROPER GROUND TO THE CHASSIS, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WILL SEEK A GROUND AT THE IGNITION COIL. THE VEHICLE'S IGNITION COIL GROUND CABLE COULD OVERHEAT AND COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STOP. IF THE ENGINE STOPPED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN, IT COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Manufacturer remedy

DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE EXISTING ENGINE GROUND STRAP AND, IF NECESSARY, REPLACE THE STRAP WITH A NEW ONE WHICH HAS THE PROPER CONNECTOR CRIMPING. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN APRIL 15, 2002. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT FERRARI AT 1-201-816-2651.

Notes

CUSTOMERS CAN ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).

Crash

Incident: April 10, 2005 · Filed: June 2, 2005

SINCE NEW, THE CAR VIOLENTLY AND SUDDENLY BUCK AND LURCHED IN FIRST GEAR. SINCE THIS IS A HIGH PERFORMANCE CAR IT MAKES IT VERY DANGEROUS AND UNCONTROLLABLE. THIS IS DANGEROUS TO THE DRIVER, OTHER DRIVERS, AND PEDESTRIANS. MANY TIME THE DEALER TRIED TO FIX BUT THEY CLAIM THAT THE DEFECT IS INHERENT TO THE EARLIER MODELS OF THIS CAR. THEY CLAIM FERRARI IS UNWILLING TO FIX EARLIER MODELS BECAUSE OF COST. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT HOLD A CHARGE. WHEN THE CONSUMERS SON WENT TO MOVE THE VEHICLE, IT LURCHED AND HE HIT A TREE WHICH CAUSED MINOR DAMAGE TO THE BUMPER. A FERRARI REP TOLD THE CONSUMER THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE EARLIER MODEL VEHICLE AND NO AMOUNT OF RESETTING THE COMPUTER WOULD CHANGE THE PROBLEM. *JB
