The defect
Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2023 911 Carrera T, 911 Carrera 4 GTS, 911 Carrera GTS, 911 Turbo S, 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet, 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet, 911 Carrera S, 911 Turbo S Cabriolet, 911 Carrera 4, 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet, 911 Targa 4 GTS, 911 Carrera, 911 Carrera GTS Cabriolet, 911 Carrera 4S, 911 Targa 4S, 911 Turbo, and 911 Edition 50 Years Porsche Design vehicles. The seat belt automatic locking retractor (ALR) may deactivate early, which can prevent the child restraint system from securing properly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
The risk
An unsecured child restraint system can increase the risk of injury during a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will inspect and replace the rear three-point belts as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 11, 2024. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is ARA2.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
