Transport Canada recalls

Brakes#2021667November 2, 2021
1,088 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the braking system could leak brake fluid. If this happens, there could be a partial or total loss of braking. Safety Risk: Reduced braking or a loss of brakes can increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Ferrari will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development and Ferrari will send you a second notice once a final repair is available. Ferrari advises that if the "Low Brake Fluid" warning message appears on the vehicle dashboard, you should pull off the road as soon as it is safe to do so. You should then contact Ferrari Roadside Assistance and get towed to the nearest dealer.
Airbag#2016248May 24, 2016
287 units affected
On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger frontal airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the airbag inflator. Note: Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. The recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace airbag inflators before their function would be affected.
Other#2014368August 29, 2014
336 units affected
Certain vehicles may not comply with Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 401 - Interior trunk release. The release mechanism for the front trunk may not release the secondary trunk latch when the vehicle is stationary, contrary to the requirements of the standard. Correction: Dealers will modify the front trunk latch mechanism.
