NHTSA (USA)Medium Risk
At a glance
What can fail
The rearview camera image may not appear on the display when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, limiting rear visibility.
What the fix does
The 2023 Porsche 911 has 5 recalls, the most serious involving center lock wheel bolts that can fracture and cause a wheel to detach while driving, raising the risk of a crash.
Two recalls concern airbag performance in a collision. The windshield and rear window may not be properly bonded to the body, and if either separates, the windshield can no longer act as the backstop that keeps front airbags directed toward occupants during deployment. Separately, the dashboard console can crack when the passenger airbag fires, causing the bag to deploy off-angle and reducing its ability to protect the occupant. On the occupant restraint side, the bolts securing the rear seat belt buckles may not have been tightened correctly during assembly, meaning a buckle could give way in a crash rather than holding the occupant in place. Rounding out the list, the rearview camera may fail to display an image when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, leaving the driver without a view of what is directly behind the car while maneuvering.
