Maserati Lemon Law Lawyer in California
One of the most well-known Italian luxury vehicles, Maserati has made a name for itself here in the States. If you own a Maserati, you’ve probably felt a sense of pride, and even prestige, when asked about your vehicle—unless it’s a lemon. Just like all vehicles, Maseratis aren’t immune to issues on the assembly line.
Is Your Maserati a Lemon?
Few things are more disheartening than a Maserati with performance issues. After all, the Maserati brand promises nothing short of power and luxury. A lemon Maserati means your vehicle is exhibiting some sort of malfunction or other issue while still under warranty.

Common Lemon Law Defects in Maseratis
Even luxury cars can be lemons. According to California’s Department of Consumer Affairs, the lemon law covers new and used vehicles still under the manufacturer’s warranty. Under California law, Maserati is required to give you a full refund or replacement if your car exhibits defects such as but not limited to:
Transmission issues.
Maserati isn’t a stranger to transmission problems. Delays in shifting have been reported in Maserati models like the Ghibli and Levante.
Electrical malfunctions.
Lights and other electrical components that either malfunction or fail can be hazards. Your check engine light should also not illuminate if your Maserati is new and still under warranty.
Turbocharger lags.
Maserati vehicles that are turbocharged may experience turbocharge lags or even a complete failure.
Overheating.
Maserati owners have had concerns about coolant leaks and overheating issues in their vehicles.
Suspension concerns.
A vehicle is stabilized and controlled by its suspension. Maserati owners of both the Quattroporte and Levante models have had concerns about bumpy rides and loud noises while driving.
Maserati Recalls
Maserati hasn’t been a stranger to recalls. Models like the Quattroporte and Ghibli have undergone recalls as early as the spring of 2024. In March of 2024, Maserati recalled Quattroporte and Ghibli models manufactured between 2021 and 2022 for cracked fuel line sensor housing. Other recalls include issues with tires, exterior lighting, seatbelts, and windshield frame bonding.

How Long Do I Have to File a Claim Against Maserati?
In California, you have four years from the end of the written new car warranty to file a lemon law claim. However, it’s best to file a claim as soon as you believe you have purchased a lemon. Filing early ensures you don’t risk losing maximum compensation for your lemon. An experienced lemon law lawyer can help you begin the claims process.
Do California Lemon Laws Apply to Used and Leased Cars?
Compensation varies depending on whether you leased or purchased your Maserati. If you leased, you can expect compensation for the amount you’ve already paid, including a buy-out of the remainder of the lease agreement. If you purchased a used Maserati, you may still qualify for compensation, but only under certain conditions:
– The Maserati is still covered by its original warranty.
– The Maserati was sold with a written factory warranty.
