  Sorry, I know this is late... UFI blamed the O-ring supplier.

                                 FERRARI

                          Ferrari North America

                        Models: Oil Filter 111782

                          Number Involved: 2,790

                Dates of Manufacture: May 2000 - May 2001

  Defect:

  Some replacement oil filters (Ferrari Part No. 111782) were made in a

  different manner from the original version. As a result, the oil

  filter may leak engine oil from the seal ring area. In the presence of

  an ignition source, the engine oil could be ignited, causing a vehicle

  fire, possibly resulting in personal injury or death. These oil

  filters can be used on Ferrari model vehicles dating back to the

  1960s.

  The model vehicles these filters can be used on are:

  Dino 206 GT, Dino 246 GT/GTS, Dino 308 GT4, 208 GTB/GTS turbo, 208

  GT4, 208 GTB/GTS turbo intercooler, GTB/GTS turbo, 275 GTB4, 308 GT4,

  308 GTB/GTS, 308i GTB/GTS, 328 GTB/GTS, 330 GT, 330 GTC, 365 GT, 365

  GT4, 365 GT4BB, 365 GTC (1970), 365 GTC/GTS, 365 GTC4, 365 GTS4, 400I

  GT/GTA, 4000 GT/GTA, 412 GT/GTA, 512BB, 512i BB, Mondial 3.2, Mondial

  3.2 Cabriolet, Mondial 8, Mondial 9 Cabriolet, Mondial 4V, 288 GTO.

  Remedy:

  Dealers will replace the oil filters with a new style of oil filter

  having a Ferrari part number of 191993, free of charge. The

  manufacturer has reported that notification began Oct. 12, 2001.

  Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time

  should contact Ferrari at 1-201-816-2600.
