Maserati Ghibli, Quattroporte, Levante, Grecale, or MC20 defects in California? Margarian Law has handled 6,000+ lemon law cases. Free case review.
Maserati is a low-volume luxury performance brand owned by Stellantis. Despite limited production, Maserati owners have reported recurring defects across the Ghibli, Quattroporte, Levante, Grecale, and MC20 platforms. Common patterns include electrical defects, transmission issues, infotainment failures, and persistent build-quality complaints. If you purchased or leased a Maserati in California that continues to have problems after multiple repair attempts under warranty, you may be entitled to relief under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. Attorney fees in qualifying cases are paid separately by Maserati upon a successful outcome.

California's Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act requires a manufacturer to repurchase or replace a vehicle it cannot repair after a reasonable number of attempts under warranty. If your Maserati qualifies, the manufacturer — not you — pays the attorney fees.

Reported Maserati lemon law claims in California have most frequently involved Ghibli and Quattroporte ZF 8-speed transmission complaints, Levante air suspension and fuel system defects, Grecale early-production infotainment and rearview camera software issues, MC20 build-quality and labeling concerns, and persistent electrical defects across the lineup. Whether any specific defect qualifies under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act depends on your individual repair history, warranty status, and the number of repair attempts.
California lemon law claims are filed against Maserati North America, Inc. under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. The process typically begins with gathering all repair orders, confirming your warranty status, and documenting the full defect history. An attorney who focuses on lemon law can evaluate whether your case qualifies, prepare a formal demand to Maserati North America, Inc., and represent you through negotiation or, if necessary, litigation.
An active NHTSA recall does not automatically make your Maserati a lemon, and it does not bar a lemon law claim. If the recall repair does not fully resolve the reported defect, or if the defect existed and went unresolved despite repair attempts, the recall history may actually support a lemon law claim by providing documented evidence of the defect.
When a lemon law claim is successful under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, the manufacturer is responsible for paying the consumer's reasonable attorney fees and costs separately, in addition to the recovery. This means qualified Maserati consumers may be able to pursue representation at no out-of-pocket cost when their case is successful. There is no guarantee of any particular outcome; results depend on the facts of each matter.
No. California's Lemon Law applies to all new and qualifying used vehicles sold under a manufacturer warranty, regardless of how exclusive or low-volume the brand. The Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act's analysis turns on warranty status, the nature of the defect, and the number of repair attempts — not on the price or rarity of the vehicle.
In a Maserati lemon law buyback under California law, Maserati North America, Inc. repurchases your vehicle and refunds the purchase price, less a statutory usage fee calculated from the mileage at the time the defect was first reported. A typical buyback may include reimbursement of payments made, payoff of any remaining loan or lease balance, sales tax, registration fees, finance charges, and documented out-of-pocket costs such as towing or rental car expenses. Specific amounts depend on the facts of your case. There is no guarantee of any particular result.
Extended out-of-service time waiting for specialty parts may support a California lemon law claim. Under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, cumulative out-of-service time is part of the lemon law analysis regardless of the cause of the delay. Parts-availability delays have been a reported complaint among Maserati owners in California. Consult a lemon law attorney to evaluate your specific situation.
Timelines vary based on the strength of the documentation, Maserati North America, Inc.'s response, and whether the case settles or proceeds to litigation. Some cases resolve in a matter of months; others take longer. There is no guaranteed timeline. An attorney can give you a more specific assessment based on the facts of your claim.
Yes. California's Lemon Law covers both purchased and leased Maserati vehicles, including Certified Pre-Owned vehicles, so long as the defect appears during the original manufacturer's warranty period and the other statutory requirements under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act are met.
Compensation under California's Lemon Law may include a manufacturer buyback, a replacement vehicle, or a negotiated cash settlement, depending on the facts of your case. Additional compensation may include reimbursement of documented out-of-pocket costs, payoff of any loan or lease balance, and recovery of attorney fees and costs paid separately by Maserati upon a successful outcome. There is no guarantee of any particular amount or result; outcomes vary based on the specific facts of each matter.
