What's wrong, in plain English

On some Porsche 911 GT3 vehicles, the screw that attaches the lower seat belt anchor to the seat frame may not have been tightened properly during assembly. Because the screw is not fully tightened, the anchor may not be as securely attached to the seat frame as it should be. This affects how firmly the seat belt anchor stays fixed to the seat frame on the affected vehicles.

1. Check your vehicle's recall status by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. 2. Contact a Porsche dealer for repair; call Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. 3. The screws will be tightened or replaced, free of charge.

Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 22V803000.
