THE VALVE VARIATOR NEEDS REPAIRED. I HAVE LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND IT'S A KNOWN DEFECT. IT IS CAUSING A LOUD TICKING NOISE WITH DECREASED PERFORMANCE. MASERATI IS WELL AWARE OF THIS DEFECT BUT THE DEALER WANTS ME TO PAY $6500 TO FIX IT.

2011 MASERATI QP: THE BLACK PLASTIC BUTTONS AND COMPONENTS ON DASH AND PARTS OF INTERIOR HAVE BECOME VERY SOFT AND STICKY. DASHBOARD BUTTON SYMBOLS BECOME UNREADABLE AS THE PLASTIC DEGRADES AND IT IS DIFFICULT TO IDENTIFY BUTTONS. BUTTONS WILL OFTEN STICK IN THE PUSHED POSITION DUE TO "STICKY" COMPOSITION AND WILL NOT SPRING BACK TO ORIGINAL POSITION. MASERATI IS AWARE OF THE DEFECT AS IT IS MENTIONED ON SEVERAL MASERATI OWNER FORUMS. MASERATI HAS NOT OFFERED TO REPAIR OR REPLACE AND MANY DEALERS OFFER A VERY EXPENSIVE REBUILD OF THE DASH. THE INABILITY TO IDENTIFY BUTTON SYMBOLS AND THE FACT THAT BUTTONS MAY STICK IN A PUSHED POSITION IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE DEGRADATION OF THE PLASTIC INCREASES OVER TIME BUT WAS EVIDENT IN THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNERSHIP OF THE VEHICLE.

Is 3 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2012 and 2020, roughly 0 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
