Before you buy

  1. 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.
  2. Request VIN-specific completion records for all battery recalls.
  3. Verify recall status of the supplied portable charging cable.
  4. Ask about brake faults and confirm passenger belt warning recall completion.
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Porsche dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
