The 2015 Porsche Panamera has 3 recalls, the most serious being a risk that the car can roll away unexpectedly if exited without the transmission in Park, and a separate electrical short that can cause a fire.
The rollaway concern involves the transmission position indicator, where the vehicle may not be fully secured when the driver exits, leaving it free to move on any slope. The electrical short raises a fire risk, though the input does not specify which component or circuit is involved. On a lower severity level, certain headlights may be misaimed, either failing to light the road ahead properly or throwing glare toward oncoming drivers in a way that raises crash risk for everyone on the road.
