Porsche Cayman (2023)

accident bodywork

The rear electronics control unit has been manually programmed with incorrect values, which could lead to a changed position of the rear spoiler and a change in aerodynamics at high speeds. This could impact the vehicle’s driving stability, potentially resulting in greater downforce and additional load on the tyres, leading to tyre damage. Additionally, the top brake light may become less visible to following traffic, increasing the risk of an accident.

The Porsche Cayman vehicles affected by this recall were manufactured between 23 June and 19 October 2023.

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.

If you wish to know more about the eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accident damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), in that case, we suggest going to this page.

Do you know the year Your car was made? You most likely don't.
