2019 Maserati Levante Recall: Critical Headlight Safety Notice

Maserati Levante recall

Recall Safety Advisory

Affected Vehicles: Approximately 430 model-year 2019 Maserati Levante SUVs equipped with full LED headlights featuring the adaptive front lighting system (AFS).

Understanding the Safety Concern

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has identified a potentially dangerous issue with the headlight alignment in certain 2019 Maserati Levante vehicles. The advanced LED headlights with adaptive functionality may be improperly adjusted above the federally mandated maximum height limit.

Potential Risks:

  • Reduced visibility for other drivers: Misaligned headlights can create glare that temporarily blinds oncoming traffic
  • Increased accident risk: The excessive light projection may impair other motorists' ability to see road hazards
  • Regulatory non-compliance: Headlights exceeding height specifications violate Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108

Maserati has authorized a complimentary repair at all authorized dealerships to correct this safety issue:

  • Dealers will perform precise headlight realignment to meet federal standards
  • The adjustment procedure typically takes less than one hour
  • All work will be performed at no cost to vehicle owners
