1990 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Steering:Wheel And Handle Bar

Consequence of Defect

the upper steering column locknut was manufactured with inferior materials and inferior self-locking properties.

Corrective Action

the locknut can loosen, causing excessive play in thesteering system and impaired handling. this could result in loss of vehiclecontrol and an accident.

Recall Notes

replace locknut with an improved locknut.

1990 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Fuel System, Gasoline:Fuel Injection System

Consequence of Defect

the aluminum fuel line fittings on certain fuel injection lines corrode, causing the fuel line fittings to break.

Corrective Action

the breakage of the fuel line fitting causes fuelleakage, resulting in increased risk of fire in the presence of a source ofignition.

Recall Notes

replace the fuel lines with modified lines constructed with a corrosion resistant coating to prevent fuel line surface corrosion.

1989 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Fuel System, Gasoline:Fuel Injection System

Consequence of Defect

the aluminum fuel line fittings on certain fuel injection lines corrode, causing the fuel line fittings to break.

Corrective Action

the breakage of the fuel line fitting causes fuelleakage, resulting in increased risk of fire in the presence of a source ofignition.

Recall Notes

replace the fuel lines with modified lines constructed with a corrosion resistant coating to prevent fuel line surface corrosion.

1986 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Engine And Engine Cooling:Cooling System:Hose

Consequence of Defect

the flexible oil hoses for the engine oil radiator could leak engine oil due to insufficient clamping of the metal connectors to flexible portion of oil hose. consequence of defect: lack of lubrication could cause severe engine damage; oil leakage could result in an engine fire.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

replace lower and upper hoses connecting engine oil radiator with improved hoses. also, update oil pressure regulating valve assembly.

1985 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Fuel System, Gasoline:Storage:Tank Assembly

Consequence of Defect

there may be interference between the fuel tank and surrounding panels causing abrasion of the fuel tank surface. consequences of defect: abrasion could affect the integrity of the fuel tank and result in fuel leakage and a fire hazard.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

install protective polyurethane cushions between body panels and fuel tank.

1985 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Suspension:Multiple Axle

Consequence of Defect

under certain specific load conditions, such as accidental high speed impacts on the rear suspension system, the rear wheel bearings and hub assemblies could deteriorate. consequence of defect: prolonged use of deteriorated wheel bearings and hub assemblies results in rear end noise and vibration. this could ultimatly cause impaired handling and possible loss of control, resulting in an accident.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

replace both right and left rear hub/hub carrier assemblies.

1984 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Fuel System, Gasoline:Storage:Tank Assembly

Consequence of Defect

there may be interference between the fuel tank and surrounding panels causing abrasion of the fuel tank surface. consequences of defect: abrasion could affect the integrity of the fuel tank and result in fuel leakage and a fire hazard.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

install protective polyurethane cushions between body panels and fuel tank.

1984 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Consequence of Defect

under certain specific load conditions, such as accidental high speed impacts on the rear suspension system, the rear wheel bearings and hub assemblies could deteriorate. consequence of defect: prolonged use of deteriorated wheel bearings and hub assemblies results in rear end noise and vibration. this could ultimatly cause impaired handling and possible loss of control, resulting in an accident.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

replace both right and left rear hub/hub carrier assemblies.

1984 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Suspension:Front:Wheel Bearing

Consequence of Defect

the front wheel bearing may deteriorate, causing vibration and noise from the front suspension assembly. consequence of defect: continued use of the car after noticing vibration and noise could cause handling difficulty and result in loss of control and an accident.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

replace part of both right and left wheel hub assembly.

1984 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Steering:Wheel And Handle Bar

Consequence of Defect

the splined coupling between the steering column and steering box could develop internal corrosion due to its exposed position and characteristics. consequences of defect: prolonged use of the car could cause deterioration of the coupling, vibrations in the steering system, and handling difficulty which could result in loss of control and an accident.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

replace the steering pinion extension with a new pregreased part installed with a new bolt.

1983 Ferrari Mondial

Component

Fuel System, Gasoline:Storage:Tank Assembly

Consequence of Defect

there may be interference between the fuel tank and surrounding panels causing abrasion of the fuel tank surface. consequences of defect: abrasion could affect the integrity of the fuel tank and result in fuel leakage and a fire hazard.

Corrective Action

Recall Notes

install protective polyurethane cushions between body panels and fuel tank.

1983 Ferrari Mondial

Component
