Porsche has issued a recall for about 3,000 Cayenne and Cayenne Coupe SUVs from model year 2024 because their hazard and parking lights may not function properly.
Porsche tells the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that a software error can make the lights inconsistent. A lighting control unit is programmed to function for “approximately five minutes” after the driver turns the car off. If the driver switches on the hazard or parking lights within 10 seconds after the unit deactivates, the rear lights won’t illuminate.
Dealers will fix the problem with a quick software update.
By law, recall repairs are always free.
Automakers try to reach every owner with recall notices, but some always slip through the cracks. That leaves millions of Americans driving cars with safety defects they could get repaired free of charge. Find out if your car has any unaddressed recalls at our recall center.
