Recall all Italia Ferrari 458

September 3, 2010

Italia Ferrari 458 were sparks in the automotive world, when she arrived on the market. Line aggressive, V8 4.5 liter engine (hence the name 458), 570 horses, pushed to 100 km / h in 3.4 seconds and top speed 375 km / h. .. the meteor was very appreciated by professionals, and its 1248 buyers worldwide, who paid 163,000 euros to afford this model in its simplest version, that is to say, no options.

Except that on the manual sports car, no entry showed: Do not ride when it gets too hot and not too "push" the engine. Otherwise? The engine, placed at the rear, caught fire! Of course, after several (bad) surprises of this kind – in California, Paris, Switzerland and China payday loan … – Prancing Horse at the firm took the fires seriously and has initiated an investigation.Note that none of the owners has been injured during these hot shots.

The investigation, opened last August 25, clearly reveals that there is a manufacturing problem. No lobby anti-Ferrari, no driver's responsibility, as noted by Ferrari for six cases of fires. The mark of prestige and relegated to the same level as competitors désoramis known for their massive recalls, like Toyota, Ford, GM or Nissan.

Michael Schumacher has suggested some ideas to engineers responsible for developing the successor to the F430.
