    Ferrari Issues Stop Sale for 488 GTB in America for Faulty Fuel Line



    "Remember yesterday when Ferrari issued a recall for the California T because there was a risk of a fuel line leak that could potentially lead to the car catching on fire? Apparently it's not the only car in Ferrari's current lineup with that problem.

    It has now been revealed that the Ferrari 488 GTB's fuel line is also at risk of leaking fuel, which also might potentially cause a fire.

    Unlike the California T, the 488 GTB won't be recalled in the U.S. That's because none of them have been delivered to any customers yet, so the company has issued a stop-sale instead. The 119 affected cars will be fixed before they're delivered to customers."

    Unfortunately i think all they will be delayed a bit, still, i think is better that this happend before the cars were delivered.

    We have several members that have on order (i know at least five), i think we should make a section on the forum specifically for this model. What do you guys think?

    Ditto. It seems to be a pretty serious problem too, fire is a very sensitive subject on supercars. By nature they have an overheating tendency.

    Let me put it this way. Mine was delivered in November and I wont see it till March haha. It will get corrected just a bad supplier issue. There is a recall "fix" at the moment however mine was a pre-production delivery
