Both driver and passenger side door panels are failing causing them to raise due to failed seal and/or glue used in production. This has been inspected by the Porsche dealer and has been deemed a failure from the factory. This issue has caused for not only visibility issues and accessibility to door locks and windows, but could potentially impact the functionality and safety of the overall side airbag operation. This is a known issue based on the responses I have received from the dealership and Porsche factory representatives on the model 911 Carerra and other Porsche models.
THIS MODEL, IF IT COMES WITH ONE OF THE TWO LIGHT COLORED DASHBOARDS AVAILABLE (MINE IS ONE-BEIGE), HAS SEVERE GLARE PROBLEMS, CAUSED BY THE NUMBER OF VENTS, SPEAKER, AND OTHER OPENINGS ON THE UPPER DASH, ALL OF WHICH REFLECT IN THE WINDOW. PORSCHE NORTH AMERICA HAS VERIFIED THE PROBLEM, DEEMING IT A "CHARACTERISTIC", NOT A DEFECT. THE DEALER, THE AUTOGALLERY HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM, ONE OF IT'S SALESMEN DEEMING IT SO MUCH GLARE AS TO BE "UNDRIVABLE". BEVERLY HILLS PORSCHE HAS VERIFIED THE PROBLEM AND TOLD ME OF NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. A PERUSAL OF THE INTERNET REVEALS MANY OTHER OWNER COMPLAINTS. AT VARIOUS TIMES, PORSCHE AND THE DEALER HAVE OFFERED TO HAVE SOMETHING MADE FOR THE DASH, BUT THEY HAVE RENEGED ON THAT OFFER (THEY INDUCED ONE CUSTOMER WHO WAS COMPLAINING TO TRADE THE CAR FOR A MORE EXPENSIVE MODEL WITH DARK DASH). THEY HAVE MADE OTHER OFFERS E.G SUNGLASSES, BUT THEY HAVE FAILED TO TAKE ANY STEPS TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. A CASUAL REVIEW OF DASHES IN OTHER CARS, BY WALKING THROUGH PARKING LOTS, REVEALS THAT NO OTHER CAR HAS NEARLY AS MANY VENTS AND OPENINGS ON UPPER DASH, OR GLARE EVEN APPROACHING THAT OF THIS MODEL. IN SHORT, THE CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE-PARTICULARLY IN SUNLIGHT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED OR THE GLARE PROBLEM REMEDIED. I ASK THAT YOU VIEW MY CAR, OR SIMILAR MODEL, DRIVE THE CAR IN SUNLIGHT AND EVALUATE THIS HAZARDOUS CONDITION. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO MAKE THE CAR AVAILABLE TO NHTSA AT ANY REASONABLE TIME. *TR

Due to a process defect in the production process, an aluminium butyl mat was incorrectly positioned, leading the screw connection of the rear left and right seatbelt buckle to malfunction. The rear belt buckles can be released in the event of an accident or sharp braking, increasing the risk of injury. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
A defect in the central locking bolt can cause the centre lock wheel fastening system to fail. This can lead the wheel fastening to come loose, resulting in the wheel's loss and vehicle's control loss. This increase the risk of accidents, injuries and material damage. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
The front and rear windows may not be properly attached. In the event of an accident, this could have a negative effect on the front airbag support and increases the risk of injury.
