I'm surprised I haven't seen anything in the forum yet about this problem (or I've just missed it somewhere). I leased my Ghibli S Q4 in January 2014. Test drove it twice and both times noticed what seemed like the engine was "stuttering" at times. The sales person assured me that it was simply a result of the engine being cold.
Over the past 9 months I've taken the car into the service department 4 times and asked that they fix this problem. Finally, during my last visit with the head of the service department along for a drive in the car I was finally told that what I am experiencing is a "characteristic of the car" and a result of the AWD or something to do with the speed at which the wheels turn differently when the car turns. It is a significant problem, so much so that everyone that has ridden in or driven my car ask what's wrong with it! Bottom line - this is something they (Maserati and/or the dealer) knew about when they leased the car but hadn't been telling consumers that it was a characteristic of the car.
Since they've told me it was a "characteristic" of the car, I'm assuming anyone else with a Ghibli S Q4 has the same problem. Anyone else know what I'm talking about?
