What is wrong

Risk
If the buzzer does not sound, occupants may fail to buckle the seat belts adequately, resulting in greater risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy
Dealers will upload a new software into the vehicle's instrument cluster control module unit. The recall is expected to begin during april 2009. Owners may contact maserati customer service at 1‑877‑696‑2737.
