Adverse tolerances combined with external force may cause the lower section of the maintenance bonnet to come into contact with the fuel inlet connector on the fuel delivery unit flange. As a result, damage to the fuel inlet connector may occur and lead to fuel leakage, increasing the risk of fire.

The Porsche Macan vehicles affected by this recall were manufactured between 7 November 2013 and 27 March 2018.

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.
