4 units affected
Issue: On a small number of vehicles, the rear outboard seat belt anchor bolts may not have been properly tightened. As a result, the rear outboard seat belts could loosen or detach in a crash.

Corrective Actions: Porsche will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the left and right rear seat belt anchor bolts.

58,856 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, covers were not installed over the horizontal headlamp adjusters. As a result, the headlamps may be adjusted horizontally. Canadian regulations do not allow for horizontal headlamp adjustment unless the vehicle is equipped with a built-in aiming device. Safety Risk: Headlamps that are not properly adjusted could cause reduced visibility or glare for oncoming drivers, and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Porsche will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install caps over the headlamp adjustment screws.
- Label#2019192
33,832 units affected
Issue: Certain wheels were made without a marking that is required by Canadian regulations. Safety Risk: This small error does not affect safety. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. The company has made changes to include the required marking on all new parts.
