The systems that failed is the emergency parking brake, as well as, the tire pressure monitoring system. Both systems would be available for inspection on request. Due to the failure of the emergency parking brake places not only the safety of others but myself, as well, at risk in the event of an emergency braking situation. Due to the failure of the tire pressure monitoring system could also place others safety and myself at risk by causing a tire to be flat without me being aware. Upon taking my vehicle to the dealership for the TPMS recall they said that I could book a service appointment with a service advisor to get the recall completed, however, the TPMS recall was never completed. Currently, the vehicle has not been inspected by anyone at this time. There is currently a warning light for the TPMS sensors, for the Electronic Parking Brake when parking the car the EPB will engage automatically the only way to disengage it is by shifting the vehicle out of park to another gear such as reverse, neutral or drive. When trying to operate the EPB while parked or while driving, it does not engage. The TPMS warning light came on around the end of 2020 in December. The EPB stopped engaging around April of 2021 this year.

12V489000 · Tires:pressure Monitoring And Regulating Systems

Oct 9, 2012

Maserati is recalling certain model year 2012 Quattroporte, Granturismo, Granturismo Convertible, and Granturismo MC vehicles. The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) may malfunction due to a software error, preventing the driver from being notified of a low tire pressure situation.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: If the driver continues to operate the vehicle with a tire that has low air pressure, the tire may fail, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Maserati will notify owners, and dealers will replace the TPMS control unit free of charge. The recall began on October 31, 2012. Owners may contact Maserati customer service at 1-877-696-2737.
