04- Structure#2023643
18 units affected
Issue: On certain Boxster GTS 4.0 and Cayman GTS 4.0 models, the rear vehicle electronics control unit may not have been programmed correctly during production. As a result, the rear spoiler may be too high and block the high-mounted stop lamp. This problem could also lead to poor handling. Safety Risk: A high-mounted stop lamp that is blocked may cause others not to recognize when the vehicle is braking. Additionally, poor handling could cause a loss of control. Both issues could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Porsche will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to reprogram the rear vehicle electronics control unit.
- Airbag#2019353
550 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the airbag electronic control unit could be damaged by an electrical fault. This could cause the airbag system not to work properly in a crash. It could also result in a deployment of the airbags and/or seat belt pretensioners without a crash. Safety Risk: Airbags that do not work properly in a crash could create an increased risk of injury. Airbags or seat belt pretensioners that deploy without a crash could create a risk of injury and also increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the airbag control module. If an electrical fault is detected, the airbag control module will be replaced.
- Airbag#2019114
75 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the airbag sensors may not be properly attached to the chassis. This could cause the airbag system not work as designed in a crash. Safety Risk: An airbag system that does not work properly in a crash could create an increased risk of injury. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to have the airbag sensors fasteners inspected. Dealers will ensure the fasteners are properly tightened.
- Fuel System#2019080
1,714 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the fuel tank could be punctured in a crash. Safety Risk: Leaking fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, creates the risk of a fire.
