Each campaign in detail

  1. Recall: brake fluid reservoir cap

    Manufacturer recall

    On the F8 Tributo and F8 Spider from 2020 to 2022, the brake fluid reservoir cap may not vent properly, creating a vacuum in the reservoir and causing a fluid leak that can lead to partial or total loss of braking (NHTSA, recall 22V536, extension of recall 21V-833). Dealers replace the cap free of charge and update the dashboard software (low brake fluid level message). PistonHeads and Exotic Car Hacks also cite this recall.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).

  2. Recall: driveshaft bolts (F8 Spider 2023)

    Manufacturer recall

    Ferrari is recalling some Portofino M, 2023 F8 Spider and 2024 Roma Spider cars: the driveshaft bolts may not have been tightened during production and could loosen, which can lead to loss of traction and control (NHTSA, recall 24V810, 4 vehicles affected in the United States). Affected owners are advised not to drive the car; the dealer checks the bolts and retightens them free of charge if needed.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
