REPLACEMENT OF
FRONT PASSENGER SEAT
MODEL YEARS 2021 – 2023
April 2023
Ferrari has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain Ferrari
vehicles listed below.
SF90 Stradale | 2021 – 2023 | VIN No. 263594 to VIN No. 287661 |
SF90 Spider |
The vehicles involved are equipped with an incorrect passenger seat. As a result, in case of an accident, the deployment of a passenger side airbag could possibly impact a child seat, thereby potentially causing abnormal body acceleration, which may lead to injuries and/or death.
The vehicles involved are equipped with an M Size Front Passenger Seat which will be replaced by an XL Size Front Passenger Seat.
RC 84 Chronology
During certain homologation pre-tests performed in July 2022 regarding a new vehicle model, which is still under design development phase (“New Model”), Ferrari was made aware of a potential issue regarding passenger seats (M size) on which child seats may be installed. In particular, it was noticed that – in case of crash of a test vehicle on which the child seat was installed on the passenger seat – the dummy biomechanical performance was not compliant with the requirements set forth in FMVSS 208. During the assessment of such pre-testing results, which was concluded in November 2022, Ferrari
determined to perform other tests on the Ferrari
SF90 model – given that this latter model has a similar application to the New Model – in order to ascertain whether this potential issue might also affect the SF90 model. Such tests were performed in January 2023 pursuant to FMVSS 208 and showed that the performance of the L size seats was just below the maximum threshold allowed by this technical standard. Further to other technical assessments made in February 2023, Ferrari
reasonably expected that the performance of the M size seats would have exceeded the threshold limits prescribed by the relevant technical standard and thus not compliant with FMVSS 208. On February 24, 2023, Ferrari
determined the existence of a defect and decided to launch a recall campaign to remedy this potential issue. Ferrari
shall replace the M size passenger seats installed on certain SF90 models with XL size passenger seats, which comply with the requirements set forth in FMVSS 208. Ferrari
conducted research to verify the number of warranty claims and determined that no warranty claims have been submitted for this issue. Furthermore, Ferrari
has had no reports of any incidents and/or deaths as a consequence of this issue.

Dear Authorized Ferrari Dealer:
Ferrari has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain Ferrari vehicles listed below.
The vehicles involved were manufactured from:
SF90 Stradale

VIN No. 263594 to VIN No. 287661

The vehicles involved are equipped with an incorrect passenger seat. As a result, in case of an accident, the deployment of a passenger side airbag could possibly impact a child seat, thereby potentially causing abnormal body acceleration, which may lead to injuries and/or death.
The vehicles involved are equipped with an M Size Front Passenger Seat which will be replaced by an XL Size Front Passenger Seat.
IMPORTANT
Ferrari will be notifying ALL affected vehicle owners nationwide with a letter indicating that the vehicle must be brought in immediately and the replacement parts will be installed free of charge.
Owners may contact Ferrari North America at (201) 816-2668; Ferrari’s campaign number for this recall is C24000084.
You must order the necessary part for each vehicle. Upon completion of the repair, we will reimburse you for the parts and labor necessary to perform this campaign under the normal warranty system.
It is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a new motor vehicle covered by this notification under a sale or lease until the recall campaign is completed.
