Ferrari 512M recall campaigns covering each model year
1995: 3 campaigns
  1. NHTSA campaign 03V142000

    Reported

    Seat Belts

    Model year 1995

    On certain passenger vehicles, the passive restraint system may not function correctly. Inconsistent electrical operation of the automatic track assembly has been experienced.

    Consequence:
    If the passive restraint system experiences an electrical or mechanical failure, the seat occupant would not be fully protected.
    Remedy:
    Dealers will replace all the main components of the passive seat belt system. This includes the electronic control units, the retractor mechanism, and both the right and left motor driven track assemblies. Owner notification began April 24, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Ferrari at 1-201-816-2651.

  2. NHTSA campaign 95V217000

    Reported

    Wheels › Multi Piece

    Model year 1995

    The bolts securing the components of the multipiece wheel can loosen over time.

    Consequence:
    The wheels can loosen over time causing a leakage of air in the tire which would result in a low or flat tire.
    Remedy:
    Dealers will replace all four multipiece wheels with wheels having different bolts which are resistant to loosening.

  3. NHTSA campaign 95V079000

    Reported

    Electrical System › Horn

    Model year 1995

    The international horn emblem is missing from the leather steering wheel cover. This does not meet the requirements for FMVSS No. 101, "controls and displays."

    Consequence:
    Consequence of non-compliance: this condition can cause inability to warn other drivers in a crash situation, and result in vehicle damage and increased risk of injury.
    Remedy:
    Dealers will stamp the steering wheel with an electrically heated tool on the left and right spoke of the steering wheel.

How to read this recall list

This list shows every safety recall campaign NHTSA has on file for this make, model and model year. It is not specific to one vehicle: a recall often covers only vehicles built in a certain date range or with a certain part, and many of the vehicles it covers will already have been repaired.

What each recall field means
What each recall field means
FieldWhat it tells you
Campaign numberNHTSA's unique ID for the recall, such as 20V771000. Quote it to a dealer or when searching NHTSA's site.
ComponentThe system or part involved, for example air bags, brakes or electrical software.
SummaryWhat the defect or non-compliance is and which vehicles are covered.
ConsequenceThe safety risk if the problem isn't fixed.
RemedyWhat the manufacturer will do, such as a repair, replacement or software update, and whether it is free.
  • Some recalls carry an NHTSA consumer advisory, “Do Not Drive” or “Park Outside”. Follow it until the repair is done.
  • A single campaign often covers several models or model years, so the same campaign number can appear in more than one list.
  • Recalls are shown as NHTSA publishes them. Very recent campaigns may take time to appear.
