Ferrari recalls 458 Italia and California models worldwide

Ferrari has announced a recall of their 458 Italia and California models worldwide due to an issue detected with the engine crankshaft. In all 206 cars have been affected out of a production run of 13,000.

 

According to Ferrari, the problem has stemmed due to an incorrect finishing on the crankshaft that wasn't calibrated correctly. This could cause unusual vibrations, which could eventually lead to an engine failure.
