Porsche 911 GT3 seat belt anchor screw may loosen

high How serious is it? About this label

Serious in a crash because the seat belt may not protect you, but the notice does not tell owners to stop driving, so normal driving is fine while you get the repair scheduled.

What's wrong, in plain English

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.

What you should do

1. Enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your car is included.
2. Call your Porsche dealer, or Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243 (recall ANB6), and book an appointment.
3. The dealer replaces and properly tightens the screws — and the seat frame if the threads are damaged — free of charge.
