Dashboard leather has shrunk and removed staples. Dashboard leather is laying on top of airbag and may act as a deterrent to the airbag function. Was informed that the airbag may not deploy correctly. Cost to repair is >$10k due to a common material defect.

Leather dashboard is shrinking. The cut out for the passenger airbag is no longer in line and will likely result in the airbag not deploying correctly.

Leather of the dashboard began to shrink on both driver and passenger sides. The shrunk leather exposed metal staples used to keep it in place and disfigured the passenger airbag compartment. An independent mechanic suggested that, in case of an accident, an airbag may not deploy correctly and the exposed staples may become a hazard. This appears to be a common problem of Porsche owners with leather dashboards.

Catastrophic failure of Bosch CP4 high-pressure fuel pump in my 2014 Porsche Diesel Cayenne. Resulted in metal shavings/shrapnel throughout entire fuel system. Car abruptly stalled while pulling out of parking lot and was unable to restart. Had vehicle towed to nearest Porsche dealer for repairs. Quote for parts only (without labor) to repair vehicle is $29,440.47. With labor is in excess of $40,000. Car has been determined to be a total loss. My 2014 Porsche Diesel Cayenne has always been maintained at suggested intervals and all service work for the life of the car was performed by Porsche. It has been a wonderful, reliable and fun vehicle to drive prior to this horrible event. No warnings of fuel pump failure came up on vehicle warning and message system.

FACTORY INSTALLED SPARE TIRE FAILED TO INFLATE AND ATTACH TO WHEEL RIM WHEN NEEDED TO REPLACE A FLAT TIRE. NONE OF THE SERVICE TECHNICIANS WITH AAA, DISCOUNT TIRE OR PORSCHE DEALERSHIPS WERE ABLE TO DO SO. THERE WERE NO VISIBLE DEFECTS ON OR IN THE SPARE. THE TIRE HAD BEEN USED POSSIBLY ONLY ONCE BEFORE THIS INCIDENT. PORSCHE REFUSED TO REPLACE IT AND I WAS FORCED TO BUY A NEW ONE BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY

The sunroof exploded going down the highway for no reason. It exploded from the inside outward.

For the past nine years, my vehicle has recorded multiple safety issues (trunk not closing/breaking, check engine light, catalytic converter misfire, keyless electronic entry issues, glow bulb light, turn signal bulb light, windows not rolling up, leaking fluid on the passenger side, burning smell coming from the vents, electrical issues with the radio, sunroof intermittently not opening/closing and the key not turning the vehicle on. Over the past nine years, I have taken the vehicle to numerous Porsche dealerships per the federal mandate from Porsche USA / Porsche UK. To date, the Service Manager, Chris Sansbury and General Manager at Brian Harris Porsche, and Porsche USA, refuse to fix the vehicle. My vehicle is still under factory warranty. I am a person with multiple disabilities. The dealerships (Jim Ellis Porsche, Hennessy Porsche, Leith Porsche, Brian Harris Porsche) have charged me thousands of dollars. I have been extremely sick and desperately need your help. Please help me!

The contact owns a 2014 Porsche Cayenne. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed while depressing the brake pedal, the brake lights became inoperable. Another motorist informed him that the brake lights were inoperable. The contact continued to drive with the hazard lights activated. The contact noticed that the plastic plugs were clogged with leaves and dirt and water had entered the vehicle which short-circuited the electrical system. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that the sunroof plastic plugs were broken, and that water had entered the vehicle. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 75,600.

When accelerating from a stop the car skips/shutters. This generally occurs gears 2-3. This problem has placed me in danger when trying to accelerate while making left hand turns.

After going through the car wash, I lost my rear brake lights and rear running lights. Still have the third brake light. From reading on many Porsche form sites, this is a common issue. The vehicle does not have adequate drains, in return, water leaks into multiple areas of the vehicle causing electrical shortages. You do not get any warning bells, or signs on the dash that you do not have rear taillights. It is a very dangerous issue.

FRONT TIMING COVER HAS LARGE LEAK. VEHICLE HAS 88,000 KMS, ALWAYS REGULARLY SERVICED AT PORSCHE DEALERSHIP IN VANCOUVER. THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH PORSCHE V8 ENGINES AND REQUIRES A FIX IN THE AMOUNT OF APPROX. $5000-8000, AS THE ENGINE HAS TO BE TAKEN OUT OF VEHICLE. AS MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, THIS COST IS PROHIBITIVE OUT OF POCKET, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE VEHICLE IS RELATIVELY NEW WITH LOW KMS. PORSCHE SHOULD EITHER DO A RECALL FOR THESE ENGINES OR PROVIDE EXTENDED WARRANTY UP TO 10 YEARS FOR THE LEAKS, CONSIDERING IT IS WAY TOO COMMON. THERE ARE LOTS OF REPORTS IN RENNLIST, 6SPEEDONLINE AND OTHER NUMEROUS FORUMS REGARDING THIS.
