SUSPENSION:REAR
- The defect
- Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Cayenne vehicles. The rear axle alignment may not have been inspected after the repairs for Recall 21V-271 (AMA9) were performed.
- What it can cause
- Rear axle misalignment may cause premature or uneven tire wear, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect the rear axle, adjust the alignment as necessary, and replace any prematurely or unevenly worn tires, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 10, 2022. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is ANA1.
- NHTSA's note
- 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.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
| Vehicle | Model years | Safety record |
|---|---|---|
| PorscheCayenne | 2021 to 2022 | 2021 |
How this campaign compares
At 1,241 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 61% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2021 to 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Porsche vehicles have been recalled over the suspension 15 times before this, most recently in November 2021 as 21V911000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 2 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 19 complaints with NHTSA, 4 of them before this campaign was filed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 4 other recalls published here: 25V896000 (back over prevention), 21V493000 (steering), 21V318000 (seats), 21V271000 (suspension).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Porsche Cars North America, Inc. with NHTSA on January 28, 2022 as campaign 22V040000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
