Buying a used 2023 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS? Check these 2 recalls first
Two recalls sit against this 2023 Carrera GTS, and no pattern of failures behind them. The more serious involves a rear seat belt that may not securely hold a child seat; the second is limited to cars fitted with bucket seats, where the seat airbag may fire when it shouldn't. Neither tells owners to stop driving or park outside. Only three owner complaints are on file with NHTSA — unverified — spread across electrical, engine and fuel-system topics, with no crashes, fires or injuries reported.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Get the VIN checked for the rear seat belt recall and any remaining open work.
- Verify the seat type, since the airbag recall covers bucket-seat cars only.
- Ask the seller about any electrical faults or warning lights, the top complaint area.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Porsche dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
