Recall 23V813000 · manufacturer campaign APB4

Electrical System — Porsche · reported 4 Dec 2023 · 53 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Porsche 718 Cayman GTS 4.0, 2024 Porsche 718 Boxster S, and 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 vehicles. The rear electronic control unit (ECU) may allow the spoiler to raise up too high.

The risk

The raised spoiler can reduce the visibility of the center brake light and impact the vehicle driving and aerodynamics, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will update the ECU software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 23, 2024. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is APB4.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
