What owners report
Vehicle experienced a sudden, complete loss of motive power while driving in active traffic at night, creating an immediate crash hazard. The vehicle had just been picked up from an authorized Porsche Service Center approximately 12 hours prior (picked up between 11:00AM - 12:00 PM, failed at 11:09 PM) after undergoing a comprehensive 60K mile scheduled service and a mandatory manufacturer software recall campaign. Without warning, the vehicle completely stalled and dropped into an undriveable state. The driverâs instrument cluster immediately illuminated two major critical alerts: "Transmission failure" and "Engine control error." Because the vehicle was stranded dangerously in live tra
Porsche dealers are not fixing this recall. They offer service appointments 6 months in advance, and then cancel at the last minute. I've been trying to get this recall done for 18 months, with no success.
The mapping system is out of date and tried to route me to an offramp that doesn't exist. I did some research and found the offramp changed over 4 years ago, roughly when the car was built. I took the car to my local dealership to get the maps updated and Porsche claims I have the latest map. I think this is a dangerous situation if someone tried to drift off the road in bad weather (for example) where an offramp doesn't exist. Their newer cars show the correct mapping. Porsche should be made to make the latest maps available to all their cars. It would cost them nothing if they simply posted the data on a website for a user to move it to a USB drive and plug it into the car.
While driving in traffic on a busy highway, I heard a loud clunk from the rear of the car and it instantly decelerated from 70+ miles per hour to 22 miles per hour, where it stayed and would not go faster. I had to get across 3 lanes of traffic to exit. Thereafter, the car would not move and had to be put on a flatbed to get to the Porsche dealer. Note that for 2 years prior the transmission had emitted a whine while in first gear. The dealership (Porsche Austin) said it was normal, but it is a known problem among owners, possibly related to the input shaft bearing. They did not fix it when the problem was first raised. The dealership has diagnosed it only as a transmission error, with
This incident is related to the ARB7/24V-732 recall, first communicated to me in November, 2024 and again in July, 2025. The July, 2025 letter states that software would be installed in the vehicle to test the health of my vehicle's battery, at a Porsche Center. I believe that this was actually performed over-the-air at my home. It's my guess that because the software was installed over-the-air, the normal process to close out a recall did not occur. I did not receive notification that my vehicle was determined to be healthy, and it isn't clear when NHTSA did. The slow or non-reporting of the vehicle recall status has had a ripple effect, as practically every third party tracker of recall
