Looks good without flames, huh?
It's officially-officially-official now: 303 Ferrari 458 Italias have been recalled due to fire risk.
We reported this story back when Ferrari was simply notifying owners and trying to avoid the stigma and paperwork a full NHTSA recall would induce.
Well, you can only play that game for so long. Ask Toyota. So now the 458 Italia recall is really a recall, it's got a number,( NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number: 10V389000 N/A) and a consequence line (UNDER PARTICULARLY HIGH AMBIENT OPERATING TEMPERATURE THIS COULD CAUSE THE ADHESIVE TO IGNITE, RESULTING IN A VEHICLE FIRE AND/OR RENDERING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE AND POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A CRASH. )
