The 2017 Porsche Macan GTS has 4 recalls, the most serious being a fuel pump flange that can crack and allow fuel to leak, raising the risk of a fire if a source of ignition is nearby.
The remaining three recalls affect occupant safety equipment. The front passenger seat sensor mat can degrade and stop detecting whether someone is sitting in that seat, which causes the front passenger airbag to stay off during a crash. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve this issue, and two separate campaigns address the same underlying failure. There is also a recall covering vehicles equipped with the optional ski bag: the bag can detach during a crash and strike occupants, raising the risk of injury.
