SEVERAL TIMES A MONTH WHEN MY CAR COMES TO A STOP THE BRAKES MALFUNCTION AND THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND THE POWER STEERING STOPS WORKING. IT TAKES UP TO ANOTHER CAR LENGTH TO FULLY STOP WHEN THIS HAPPENS - SOMETIMES JUST A FEW EXTRA FEET. IT HAS CAUSED ME TO DAMAGE THE FRONT END BY DRIVING INTO A BUSH. THE DEALER REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE BRAKE PROBLEM AND THEY STATE THE STEERING PROBLEM IS NORMAL. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO REPLICATE THE STEERING PROBLEMS TO THEM BUT BECAUSE THE BRAKE ISSUE HAPPENS ONLY A FEW TIMES A MONTH I WAS NOT ABLE TO.

Perelli scorpion Verde tires started showing sidewall degradation and pitting in 2003 or earlier – the earliest photos we have are dated 2003. The tires had to be replaced due to the degradation and we requested the tire shop to look into a warranty claim. The tire shop changed hands and we went through four managers and weren’t able to get a clear answer, during that time the tires continued to get worse and pit. We found numerous reports on the Internet of the same tire having a identical issue and believe it is a material defect and safety issue of this tire.

The Waste Gate Arm has broken on my 2019 Cayenne. This is a widely known issue with Porsches. Feels like this needs a recall. It is absurd to me that the dealers want to replace the whole turbo unit at $7-9k when a simple weld can fix. I am 6 months out of the 7 year warranty but under the 70k mileage. I am pushing the dealer to work this out. But it is crazy that Porsche isn’t held accountable for a design flaw.
