DECEMBER 2007
-- Porsche is recalling 37 MY 2008
911 GT3 and GT3RS 2-door coupe vehicles. The switch console for
the Porsche active suspension management (PASM) and the traction
control (TC-OFF) switches was inappropriately installed. The
LEDs in the switches can signal a functional change in the PASM
mode or the deactivation of traction control even though the
switches are not actuated. If the traction control or active
stability management system are inadvertently disabled, and the
subsequent warning lamp illumination in the instrument panel
onboard computer is unnoticed by the driver, the safety benefits
of these systems would be unavailable to the driver which could
increase the possibility of a crash during aggressive driving
maneuvers. Dealers will replace the switch console. The
manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule
for this campaign. 07V-557
FEBRUARY 2008
-- Porsche is recalling
5,573 MY 2008 Cayenne V6
vehicles. A fuel line in the
plenum panel area may
contact the rear engine
compartment cover. Relative
movements of the engine
while driving may cause
knocking noises and chafing
on the fuel line. A fuel
leak may develop. Fuel
leakage in the presence of
an ignition source can
result in a fire. Dealers
will reroute the fuel line
and install an additional
spacer ring free of charge.
The recall is expected to
begin during March 2008.
