    Engine and Engine Cooling / Engine

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Ferrari is recalling 1,950 my 2005-2007 f40 spider vehicles. The defect involves the hydraulic hoses for the convertible top that are located inside of the engine compartment. The heat from the engine may cause hair-line cracks to form in the hoses which may result in fluid leakage from the convertible top hydraulic system.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This leakage in turn, will cause the convertible top warning light to illuminate and if not remedied, could ultimately leak fluid into the engine compartment causing smoke and a fire, rendering the vehicle inoperable and possibly resulting in a crash.

    Power Train / Manual Transmission

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    On certain coupe and spider vehicles equipped with manual six-speed transmission, there is a non-conforming right-angle union in the clutch pump. This could cause a hair-line crack to form under normal conditions due to heat, which could result in fluid leakage from the braking/clutch hydraulic system.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This leakage, in turn, will cause the braking/clutch hydraulic system fluid level warning light to illuminate and, if not remedied, could ultimately affect the functionality of the clutch control pedal. This could result in a reduction in the driver's ability to shift gears while driving, rendering the vehicle inoperable which could result in a crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will replace the non-conforming union in the clutch. In addition, the seal ring, rubber hose and screw collars that are attached to the union will be replaced. The recall began on january 3, 2007. Owners may contact ferrari at 1-201-816-2600.
