Issue:
On certain vehicles, covers were not installed over the horizontal headlamp adjusters. As a result, the headlamps may be adjusted horizontally. Canadian regulations do not allow for horizontal headlamp adjustment unless the vehicle is equipped with a built-in aiming device.
Safety Risk:
Headlamps that are not properly adjusted could cause reduced visibility or glare for oncoming drivers, and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Porsche will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install caps over the headlamp adjustment screws.
Airbag
2016-12-22 · campaign 2016-654 · 9 vehicles
Certain vehicles may have been equipped with side airbag inflators (located in the front seat backrests) that do not meet specifications. This could cause affected airbags to fail to deploy properly in the event of a lateral crash, which could increase the risk of injury to the occupants. Correction: Dealers will replace affected airbag modules.
