1,180 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the windshield and/or the rear window may not be properly attached. As a result, the front airbag(s) may not inflate properly in a crash. Safety Risk: An airbag that doesn't inflate properly could create an increased risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: Porsche will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the windshield and/or rear window.
- Airbag#2023571
572 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles equipped with optional full bucket seats, the seat-mounted airbags could deploy in a crash that doesn't require them to. Safety Risk: A seat-mounted airbag that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: Porsche will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the airbag control unit software.
- Lights And Instruments#2023362
90 units affected
Issue: On certain 911 GT3 Touring models, when the rear spoiler is raised manually, both the main and auxiliary center high-mounted stop lamps may switch on when the vehicle is braking. Canadian regulations only allow one of the two centre high-mounted stop lamps to be switched on while braking. Safety Risk: Multiple stop lamps that turn on at the same time could cause confusion for other drivers and 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 spoiler control unit.

- EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS#23V446000
Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2022-2023 911 GT3 Touring vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
