Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Porsche Cars North America is recalling 700 units of the 2022-2023 911 GT3 Touring vehicles. A software error in the rear spoiler control unit can cause two different center high-mounted brake lights to turn on at the same time when the spoiler is manually deployed at speeds below 56 MPH. Dealers will reprogram the control unit for free to ensure only the correct brake light activates.

Risk

Having two high-mounted brake lights active simultaneously can confuse other drivers following the vehicle, which may delay their reaction and increase the risk of a rear-end crash.
