Again?! If it’s true, no one has contacted me yet. It’s the first time I’m hearing this. Kind regards, Nuno.

Vice versa? or, some other permutation. I would have the service folks run your VIN and see if the air bag campaign has been done as part of the Takata recall. T

Hi...I was contacted by the F dealer in regards to my Cali. You can also check your VIN on the NHTSA website, assuming you are in the US. https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls T Edit - oops, I see you are in France. I would assume there is a French equivalent of the NHTSA site.
Bonjour, My car is registered on "MyFerrari" I have received a letter from Maranello, they don't mention any VIN numbers concerned. They just tell you that your VIN is concerned by the recall Passenger Airbag campaign. Also give some technical details about the reason for recall. You have to contact your dealer to order the new spare part and replace it. The dealer has to update Maranello after the replacement.
some cars that had the recall done previously will need it replaced again, it was a temporary fix and they have come with a final fix for the recall in 2019. absolutely possible that it had another recall airbag as well as possible ECU replacement on some models.
