UK Vehicle Recall Check
Ferrari is the iconic Italian luxury-sports brand, with the UK fleet ranging from current Roma, Portofino M, F8 and SF90 hybrid supercars through to a deep back catalogue of 458, 488, F430, 599 and earlier models. Enter any UK registration to see whether an outstanding manufacturer recall is on file.

Our combined check pulls the DVSA recall database, the SMMT manufacturer feed and the DVLA recall archive going back to 1992, so where a recall exists you get the live outstanding status, the recall description and every past campaign for the same model in one place.
The UK government's official recall register. Confirms whether a recall is outstanding for the vehicle.
Industry data from vehicle manufacturers. Typically includes the recall description, not just a flag.
Every UK recall campaign issued since 1992. Surfaces the historical campaigns for the same make and model alongside the live status.
Ferrari has issued a number of UK safety recalls over the past decade, with notable campaigns covering brake-system items on the 458, 488 and California T (a global brake-fluid-pressure recall), fuel-system programmes on V8 turbo models, and high-voltage-component campaigns on the SF90 and 296 hybrid range. Ferrari repairs every safety recall free of charge through its UK Dealer network — and because Ferraris are often kept in private collections and traded carefully through specialists, a quick check ensures nothing has been missed for your VIN.
Looking for the recall history of a specific Ferrari? Each model page covers known UK safety campaigns, generation coverage and model-specific FAQs. The combined DVSA + SMMT check is the same on every page.

A non-exhaustive editorial summary of recent UK safety campaigns. Run a check to see whether any of these apply to a specific vehicle.
Global brake-fluid recall: in rare cases a brake-fluid-reservoir cap defect could allow loss of pressure, prompting a wide-ranging campaign across most modern Ferrari road cars.
Selected high-voltage-component and software-update campaigns on early SF90 hybrid supercars, addressed via a free dealer reflash and inspection.
Selected fuel-line and turbo-system campaigns on V8 turbo models, addressing a possible fuel-leak risk under the engine cover.
The full list of DVLA-recorded Ferrari safety recalls. Showing the most recent 20 of the archive — run a check on a specific registration to see whether any recall is outstanding for that vehicle.

Enter the vehicle's registration mark (VRM) and pay £1.99. We query the DVSA recall database and the SMMT manufacturer feed in a single request and return the combined result. For most Ferrari vehicles you'll see whether a recall is outstanding, the source database, and (where available) a description of the recall.
DVSA (the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency) maintains the UK government's official recall register and flags whether a recall is outstanding. SMMT (the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders) aggregates manufacturer-supplied data which often includes the recall description as well as the outstanding flag. Combining both maximises coverage and detail.
Both DVSA and SMMT data sources are continually updated as manufacturers report new safety campaigns. Each check returns a timestamp showing when the data was last verified for that vehicle.
Some vehicles aren't currently listed in either database (very new registrations, very old vehicles, grey imports, and certain commercial variants are the usual reasons). When that happens we'll show "Unknown" and direct you to the manufacturer's recall portal so you can confirm directly. A refund is available if you'd like one.
Contact any authorised franchised dealer for the brand. Manufacturers carry out safety recalls free of charge, regardless of who currently owns the vehicle and regardless of age. You'll typically need the vehicle's VIN; the report includes it where the database returns one.
No account is needed to start a check. After payment we'll email you a magic link so you can access the report any time, and a shareable link if you want to send the result to a buyer, seller, or dealer.
Coverage depends on whether DVSA and SMMT have data for the VIN. Limited-edition models have very small UK parcs and may show as "Unknown" in our check — in that case the report links to Ferrari's official owner-services portal so you can confirm directly with the factory or your Dealer.
Yes. Older Ferraris have had a number of safety campaigns over the years (airbag, fuel-system, electrical), and recall letters from the early 2000s rarely reach the current keeper through several private hands. Manufacturers fix safety recalls free of charge regardless of vehicle age.
Yes. UK-registered Ferrari hybrids are covered by the same DVSA + SMMT combined check, including any hybrid-specific recall campaigns (high-voltage battery, inverter, drive software).
Ferrari maintains an official recall lookup tool. Our combined check pulls from DVSA and SMMT to give you broader coverage, but you can also check the manufacturer's portal directly.
