Recalls: Porsche 976 Panamera
2023-24 Porsche 976 Panamera: defective wheel centre lock nuts
In November 2024, recall campaign ARC4 was issued for 2023–2024 Porsche 976 Panamera vehicles. Due to a manufacturing defect, the road wheel centre lock nuts may be defective. This could cause the lock nut to fracture and result in loosening of the wheel. In turn, this could cause the wheel to come off and a loss of control, thereby increasing the risk of a collision and injury for vehicle occupants and other road users. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-006166.
2023-25 Porsche 976 Panamera: delayed side airbag deployment
In October 2025, recall campaign ASA8 was issued for 2023-25 Porsche 976 Panamera vehicles. Due to a manufacturing error, the wiring harness between the door pressure sensor and the airbag control unit had an incorrect connector pin allocation. An incorrectly assigned sensor could delay deployment of the side airbag when a collision occurred, thereby increasing the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-006455.
