Count them: just 63 2014 Maserati Quattroportes have been recalled due to an electrical issue that could potentially cause a fire. Maserati claims the specific issue involves an "improper Y-connection crimp in the alternator-starter motor wiring harness." Translation: this could cause an electrical short that not only could start a fire, but also lead to the car stalling. Obviously Maserati will fix the problem at no charge for the grand total of 63 owners affected.

N/A

Specifically, the Quattroporte trim involved here is the GTS V8. The base price alone for a new Quattroporte is $102,500, but the GTS V8 carries a sticker price of $140,500 without any added options. All new Quattroportes are equipped with a new twin-turbo V8, but the base engine is a 3.0-liter unit with 404 horsepower. The optional engine, the one involved in this recall, is a 3.8-liter with 523 hp.
