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.
- Request completion records for the airbag and brake warning recalls.
- Have the transmission pipe inspected for fluid leakage.
- Test the rearview camera and ask about engine or electrical faults.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Porsche dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
