2010 Porsche Panamera Complaint Log

The design of this car incorporates something called a "rear hatch drain". This drain can be clogged with debris over time, which leads to a situation in which rainwater drains into the battery hold area. There is no warning for this occurrence; I only discovered it once the tail lights and liftgate began to malfunction. This quickly deteriorated into not being able to start the car at all. This is unsafe because it creates a situation wherein the lights and battery can malfunction/die without any warning. This public safety defect also erodes consumer confidence, as electrical issues are incredibly expensive to repair. Porsche does not even include what should be a basic point of inspection as part of the $300 that they charge anytime they touch of look at the vehicle that the consumer brings in.

HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP HAS FAILED I'M TO BELIEVE THAT IT WAS REPLACED BUT FAILED ONCE AGAIN

FAILURE OF THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP CAUSED LOSS OF POWER. VEHICLE DRIVEN TO PORSCHE DEALER WHO WAS TOO BUSY TO DO A SCAN FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK AND SENT ME AWAY ON A 65 MPH HIGHWAY. MY REPAIR SHOP SCANNED AND IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM. CAR AT HOME TO BE TOWED INTO PORSCHE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. CANNOT BE DRIVEN BECAUSE LOSS OF POWER COULD CAUSE SUDDEN STOP AND SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON HIGHWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 PORSCHE PANAMERA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR WAS THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

A SMALL HIT ON THE FRONT BY A MOTOR CYCLE. NO DAMAGE TO MOTORCYCLE AND JUST A SMALL DENT TO PANAMERA ON THE FRONT. BUT THE PANAMERA CAUGHT FIRE IMMEDIATELY. *TR
