electronic fire

Moisture infiltration may lead to corrosion of the control unit for the additional air conditioning pump. This could damage the unit’s wiring harness connection over time, possibly leading to short circuits that could cause a fire.

Moreover, if the AUTO-REST heating button is activated in the center console after the vehicle has been parked, it could increase the risk of fire.

The Porsche Panamera vehicles affected by this recall were manufactured between 21 July 2015 and 10 November 2021.

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.
