Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I am concerned that this coolant hose issue will effect my car and cause a safety hazard. I feel that there should be a recall from Porsche to fix this. I understand that the engine coolant hose is glued on using epoxy instead of welded or threaded. Also, I don't want to have to shell out $3.5k to fix this should it fail because my warranty has expired. If the actual engine blows as a result of this failure I am looking at well over $35000 to replace the engine and fix the problem. My engine coolant temperature sensor has already failed and was replaced on 08/17/2012.”

NHTSA complaint #10520052, filed 2013-06, 35,000 miles

“Cause of problem is due to clutch master slave cylinder internal leak. Premature failure of slave cylinder. Clutch paddle was depress and will not return fully. Few days later, clutch paddle would stay put on the floor of the car. Check out the blog and it is a very common premature failure for this typical model however, Porsche didn't sell enough for everyone to get on board with the complaint.”
