2010 PORSCHE PANAMERA. CONSUMER WRITES SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS RELATED TO PCNA CAMSHAFT CONTROLLER SAFETY RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE BEING DRIVEN. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED.*JS
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 PORSCHE PANAMERA TURBO. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO PASS A VEHICLE, THE CHECK ENGINE AND ALL WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SWERVE INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO OKEMOS AUTO COLLECTION (2186 JOLLY RD, OKEMOS, MI 48864) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE EXPERIENCED A LOWER END FAILURE, AS EVIDENCED BY THE ENGINE OIL AND COOLANT MIXING. THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE CONTACT SHOULD PAY FOR THE DEALER TO DISASSEMBLE THE ENGINE TO DETERMINE IF IT WAS AN INTERNAL FAILUR
MY 2010 PORSCHE PANAMERA TURBO (HAS ONLY 68,700 MILES ON IT) WAS ACCELERATING FROM A RED LIGHT ON A BUSY CITY STREET GOING STRAIGHT. AS I APPROACHED 50 MPH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH A MESSAGE THAT SAID "4WD SYSTEM FAILURE AND AUTO STOP/START FUNCTION DISABLED". SO, I HAD IT TOWED TO THE PORSCHE DEALER FOR SERVICE. THEY FOUND THE CAM ADJUSTER BOLTS ON ONE BANK HAD SHEARED OFF AND THE CAM ADJUSTER ON THE OTHER BANK HAD LOOSENED UP. THEN A SIMPLE INTERNET WEB SEARCH REVEALED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WELL KNOWN WORLD WIDE BY PORSCHE BUT ONLY CHINA FORCED A RECALL DUE TO SAFETY. SO THERE'S ALREADY A PRECEDENT FOR A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE. DEFECTIVE OR SUBSTANDARD CAM ADJUSTER BOLTS DESTROYS
