Porsche 911 with bucket seats: seat airbag may fire unnecessarily medium

Reported 2023-10-25 · Campaign 23V715000 · Model years: 2022, 2023

Cars ordered with the optional full bucket seats have an airbag built into the seat itself. On these cars, that seat airbag can go off during a crash when it was not supposed to. An airbag that fires when it should not can strike the person in the seat and cause injury on its own. The fix is a software change: the dealer reprograms the airbag control computer at no cost. Owner letters were mailed December 11, 2023.

Porsche 911 GT3 Touring brake lights flash together low

Reported 2023-06-26 · Campaign 23V446000 · Model years: 2022, 2023

These cars have two center brake lights: one on the body and one on the rear spoiler. Only one should be lit at a time. A software error in the spoiler's control unit can switch both on at once when you raise the spoiler by hand at speeds under 56 mph. Two center brake lights glowing together can confuse drivers behind you about what your car is doing, which could lead to a crash. The federal lighting standard is not met.

Porsche 911 GT3 seat belt anchor screw may loosen high

Reported 2022-10-25 · Campaign 22V803000 · Model years: 2022

On some 2022 Porsche 911 GT3 cars, the screw that holds the bottom end of a front seat belt to the seat frame may not have been tightened enough at the factory. If that screw is loose, the belt anchor can pull away from the seat during a crash, so the belt would not hold you in place the way it is supposed to. The car otherwise drives normally, and there is no warning light for this.

Porsche 911 and Cayman manuals lack child-seat instructions low

Reported 2019-12-11 · Campaign 19V875000 · Model years: 2018, 2019

Nothing is wrong with the car itself. The owner's manual does not explain clearly enough how to install a child safety seat using the car's built-in anchors. Because the instructions are not specific, a parent could hook the seat up wrong without knowing it, and a seat that is not installed properly may not protect the child in a crash. Porsche will give you a printed supplement for the manual with proper installation instructions, free of charge. The recall began in February 2020.
