Maserati GHIBLI problems and owner complaints

During a diagnostic performed at the Maserati dealership to repair parking brake failure, it was determined that the right strut tower/dome has a large crack.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-10 NEAR PALM SPRINGS, CA FEBRUARY 27 AT ABOUT 12:10 AM. I PASSED A SEMI-TRUCK BY MOVING TO THE LEFT AND ACCELERATING.

THE BRAKING WAS NOT NOTICEABLY SLOWING THE CAR ( AND AS YOUR RECALL CITES IT SHOULD, THE BRAKING DID NOT DISENGAGE THE ACCELERATOR.) I THEN PLACED THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL. OF COURSE THIS SOLVED THE IMMEDIATE PROBLEM. NO…

MY COMPLAINT IS REGARDING MY 2017 MASERATI GHIBLI SQ4. WHILE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC OR AT STOP LIGHT THE CAR SHUTS DOWN AND PUTS ITSELF IN NEUTRAL.
