WNA6 - Reworking Fastening Bolts on the Underbody (Workshop Campaign)
Revision:
This bulletin replaces bulletin Group 5 22/22 WNA6, dated May 13, 2022.
Model Year:
2022
Model Line:
Cayenne (9YA/9YB)
Concerns:
Fastening bolts on underbody
Information:
Due to an error during the production process, fastening bolts that do not meet the required
specifications were installed on the affected vehicles.
If, therefore, the tolerances in the body structure are unfavorable, there is a possibility that contact could
occur between the fuel tank and fastening bolt while driving and this could result in a fuel tank leak over
the service life of the vehicle.
Action required: Remove fastening bolts on underbody. The fuel tank must also be checked for damage and replaced if
necessary.
Affected
Vehicles:
Only vehicles assigned to the campaign (see also PCSS Vehicle Information).
