What is being recalled

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain model year 2015 Cayenne Diesel and Cayenne S vehicles manufactured November 26, 2014, to November 27, 2014. Due to a manufacturing error, the suspension alignment on the front and rear axles may not have been performed correctly and the screw connections of the camber, toe and caster may not have been tightened with the specified torque.

Why it is dangerous

If the suspension alignment was incorrectly performed, vehicle handling could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Porsche will notify owners, and dealers will perform a front and rear suspension alignment, and check the screw connections for the proper torque, retightening as necessary, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification date. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is AF04.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 14V-824 when calling a dealer.
