Suggestions for Obtaining
Service for Your Vehicle Prepare for the Appointment If warranty work is required, be sure
to have the right papers with you and
take your warranty folder. Not all
work being performed may be
covered by the warranty: therefore
discuss additional charges with the
service manager. It is advisable to keep
a maintenance log of your vehicle’s
service history, as this can often
provide a clue to the current problem.
Prepare a List Make a written list of your vehicle’s
problems or the specific work you
wish to be performed. If the vehicle
has had an accident or work done that
is not indicated on the maintenance
log, please communicate this to the
service advisor.
Optimize the Requests If there are a number of items
needing attention, it is advisable to
discuss this with your service advisor to
agree on the order of priorities.
At many Authorized Dealers/Service
Centers , it is possible to obtain a
loaner vehicle or a rental vehicle at a minimal daily charge. If you need a
rental vehicle, it is advisable to make
these arrangements prior to the visit,
for example when you call to set the
appointment.
If You Need Assistance The manufacturer/Maserati and its
Authorized Dealers/Service Network
set highest priority to the client’s
satisfaction with the products and
services.
Warranty service must be performed
by an Authorized Maserati
Dealer/Service Center .
Should there be any issues, please
keep in mind that most matters can be
resolved with the following process.
• If for some reason you are still not
satisfied, please contact the general
manager or owner of the Service
Center, it is their responsibility to
assist you.
• If a Service Center is unable to
resolve the issue, you may contact
Maserati Customer Center .
Any communication to the Maserati
Consumer Affairs should include the
following information:
• Owner’s name and address.
• Owner’s telephone number (home
and office).
• Maserati Service Center name.
• Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
