SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
- The defect
- Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2022 911 GT3 vehicles. The screw that attaches the lower seat belt anchor to the seat frame may not have been tightened properly.
- What it can cause
- An improperly tightened seat belt anchor can detach during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace and tighten the screws. If the screw threads are damaged, the seat frame will also be replaced. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 23, 2022. Owners may contact Porsche's customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is ANB6.
- 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 .

How this campaign compares
At 15 vehicles this is a small campaign: 89% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Porsche vehicles have been recalled over the seat belts 9 times before this, most recently in February 2022 as 22V100000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 23V715000 (air bags), 23V446000 (exterior lighting).
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 October 25, 2022 as campaign 22V803000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
