THIS CAR, WHEN SOLD WITH THE 20" WHEELS HAS IS UNABLE TO SAFELY NEGOTIATE USUAL HIGHWAY CONDITIONS. THE TIRES FREQUENTLY BUBBLE OR BLOW OUT FROM THE SLIGHTEST IMPERFECTION IN THE ROAD SURFACE. THE CAR, FITTED WITH THIS TIRE AND WHEEL CONFIGURATION IS UNSAFE. YOU NEED TO DO A STUDY OF TIRE FAILURE IN THIS YEAR CAR WITH THOSE WHEELS AND YOU WILL SEE THAT THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. I HAVE REPORTED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES BUT SINCE THEY MAKE THEIR MONEY FIXING FLATS THEY HAVE NO INTEREST IN ADDRESSING THIS PROBLEM. I REPORTED IT TO MASERATI CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING UNLESS THE DEALERS REPORT THIS AS A PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MANY TYPES OF CARS FOR OVER 38 YEARS AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT THIS IS DEFINITELY A HIGHLY ABNORMAL SITUATION. I HAVE NAMES OF OTHER PEOPLE I KNOW WHO HAVE THE SAME CAR AND CAN ATTEST TO THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM. *TR
