Reply To: Grecale Disc Brake Issues

[Tony Jaskeran]

Hi Vaughan,

Before proceeding, I would ask that Sytner/Maserati provide:

Measured disc runout and thickness variation vs tolerance

Confirmation whether your VIN has been assessed against Rapid Update 814.

Clarification why this is considered wear given the low mileage and usage profile
given the symptoms align with a known manufacturing update, as I would expect this to be considered under defect rather than wear.

You might want to consider writing to Maserati direct as goodwill decisions are made centrally.

You can also consider telling them, you will arrange an independent inspection to obtain an objective technical assessment.

Both the AA & RAC can do this.

I think you are in a good position as, low mileage, light usage, known Maserati update & at this point no technical evidence from dealer.

Sadly, this is all time consuming.
