• Recall 2016131 [Canada]: Brakes
  On certain vehicles, a circlip at the brake pedal hinge may not have been installed at the time of assembly. This could allow the pivot pin to move out of position, which would allow the pedal to wobble, and could fracture the brake pedal pivot through continued use. A fractured hinge would allow the pedal to separate from its pivot, which could lead to impaired brake function and increase stopping distances, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will inspect and add a circlip as necessary.

Grinding & clunking noise from drive train at low engine speeds. Took it to porsche dealership in october, 2020. They did not fix the problem and i was told it is ok to drive. The noise is getting worse from initial whining to grinding & clunking noise. Online forums indicate that it is a common problem with cayenne & macan models of porsche. Porsche has acknowledged the issue on there website with warranty extension. When i call the porsche customer support. They are not acknowledging the warranty extension. I think it is a major safety issue and need to be address by porsche

Multiple transfer case failures. First at 50k miles (slipping between gears, followed by a severe jolt as the gear finally changed)'transfer case was replaced at my expense ($7000k later). Second failure occurred less than 6 months later at 55k miles (severe jolt when shifting from 3rd to 4th gear)'transfer case replaced under parts warranty. Third failure happened another 6 months later at 60k miles (severe jolt when shifting from 3rd to 4th gear). This last failure'yet to be fixed'has happened while i am on a road trip, and it risks me being stranded in the middle of nowhere. This issue is rampant among 958s. Porsche really needs to step up and fix this issue. It's reported rampantly on forums, with many owners reporting multiple successive failures like i have experienced.
