Reason for the recall:

Possible faulty construction of the door moulding causes the sensors of the vehicle occupant protection system to be activated incorrectly. This may result in unnecessary and unexpected deployment of the occupant protection system, increasing the risk of injury.

The Porsche Cayman models affected by this recall were manufactured between 12 January 2018 and 17 June 2019.

What should an owner do if there's a recall?

Please note that the recall may not apply to all vehicles produced in a given period. If you think your car might be affected, you should immediately contact a Porsche dealer or workshop officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details. You can use our sample request text. After reporting the vehicle's VIN code, you will find out if the defect is present on your car, or if it has already been resolved by the previous owner if the car was purchased second-hand.
