The problem of the 488 GTB is identical to that of the California T, meaning a low-pressure fuel line could leak, potentially causing a fire within the new 3.9-litre twin turbo V8 engine. Thankfully, no incidents related to the problem has been reported yet.

 

Sales and deliveries of the 488 GTB is said to recommence once the problem is fixed with a new part for the fuel system.
