2015 Maserati Ghibli 3.0L Diesel · C25 FAN

Recurring issues with tyre tread depth and brake component wear define the mechanical history of this vehicle, which has seen multiple failures and advisories related to these consumables. The most recent test on 21 May 2026 resulted in a pass, though it noted a missing nearside mirror cover and a low tyre pressure warning. Looking at the broader trend, the record shows a pattern of tyres reaching or exceeding legal limits, including a dangerous failure in April 2019 due to exposed cords and insufficient tread depth. Brake components have also been a consistent point of attention, with advisories for thinning pads and pitted or scored discs appearing in 2018 and 2021. The vehicle has covered 88,941 miles over its eleven-year lifespan, representing an average annual accumulation of approximately 8,086 miles. This usage rate is consistent with typical long-distance or mixed-use patterns for a vehicle of this age. While the mileage is not exceptionally low, it does not suggest heavy commercial use, but the recorded history of tyre and brake wear is consistent with regular road use where consumable parts are replaced as they reach the end of their service life. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the condition of the tyres and braking system during a physical inspection and test drive. Given the history of uneven tyre wear and multiple advisories regarding edge wear, it is necessary to check for any signs of misalignment or suspension geometry issues. During a test drive, listen for any rhythmic thumping or humming from the tyres and check for any pulling to one side under braking. The 2025 advisory regarding a nail in the offside rear tyre and the 2026 low pressure warning suggest that tyre integrity and pressure monitoring should be verified to ensure there are no slow punctures or sidewall damage. The braking system requires specific scrutiny due to the repeated advisories regarding thin pads and scored discs. On the test drive, feel for any pedal judder or pulsation, which could indicate warped or unevenly worn discs, and listen for any squealing or grinding noises that might suggest the pads are nearing the end of their effectiveness. Additionally, the missing nearside mirror cover noted in the latest test should be checked for any underlying damage to the door card or electrical connections for the mirror adjustment mechanism.
