On the 24th August 2010, BBC News reported that ten 458s had either crashed or caught fire in just three months. Ferrari responded later that it was aware of the fire-related cases, and was in the process of investigating them.
On September 1st, 2010 Ferrari officially recalled all 1,248 of the 458s sold to date. A spokesman commented that the problem had been traced to adhesive used in the wheel-arch assemblies, and that in certain circumstances, the glue could begin to overheat, smoke and even catch fire. In extreme cases, the melting adhesive could lead to the heat shield deforming, and hence moving closer to the exhaust, causing the wheel-arch lining to catch fire. Owners who had reported fires that were later confirmed by independent engineers to be due to this problem, will now receive a new car. All other cars will be modified, replacing the adhesive with mechanical fasteners.
