The 2022 Porsche 911 GT3 has 4 recalls, the most serious involving the optional full bucket seats, where the side-mounted airbags can deploy during a crash even when conditions do not warrant it, raising the risk of injury to the occupant.
A second seat-related concern is specific to the GT3: a screw securing the lower seatbelt anchor to the seat frame may not have been tightened properly, and if it pulls free in a crash, the belt loses its anchor point and can no longer restrain the occupant effectively. On the lighting side, GT3 Touring models have a software error in the rear spoiler control unit that allows both the vehicle's center high-mounted brake light and the spoiler's center brake light to illuminate at the same time when the spoiler is raised manually at speeds below 56 mph. Drivers behind the car may interpret the simultaneous activation as an unusual signal, creating potential for confusion and increasing crash risk.
