Recall 15V-305: 2014–2015 Ferrari Laferrari
Ferrari North America, Inc. recall for seats, reported to NHTSA on May 22, 2015, covering about 85 vehicles.
The problem
Ferrari North America, Inc. (FNA) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 LaFerrari vehicles manufactured May 15, 2014, to March 4, 2015. The affected vehicles have L32 seats as standard equipment for the passenger seat and as optional equipment for the driver seat. In a crash, the headrests of L32 seats may not absorb the required amount of energy, and thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 202a, "Head Restraints."
The risk
Headrests that do not absorb the required amount of energy can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
The fix
FNA will notify owners, and dealers will replace the headrests, free of charge. The recall began on July 17, 2015. Owners may contact Ferrari customer service at 1-866-551-2828. Ferrari's number for this recall is 55.
