Ferrari 458 Italia recalled over fire risk

Ferrari 458 Italia
It seems Ferrari has finally took blame for the recent fires suffered by 458 Italia supercars, and has issued a recall for the exotic supercar.

It seems that there is a problem with the adhesive used to stick a heat shield onto the rear fender. Under extreme temperatures, the adhesive can ignite, causing a fire in the rear of the car. Up until now, all of the fires originated from that area.

Owners are advised to head on over to their local Ferrari dealership so that a free fix can be implemented.
