Unknown or Other · reported Oct 18, 2026
In June, whilst looking into an engine check light (unrelated minor EVAP issue) my independent German automotive specialist discovered an active coolant leak coming from the water pump assembly on my 2022 Macan S (2.9L EA839 V6 engine). Because my factory warranty had just expired, I took the vehicle to my local Porsche dealership at the beginning of July when they could fit me in under a 'goodwill repair'. The dealership service department denied that an active leak existed, claiming it was "just dried coolant around the weep hole" and normal venting, and refused to replace the pump. I…

The backup camera will flip upside down or go completely blank or not work at all. I had my car in reverse and the camera didnât come on and one time I flipped upside down and now it donât work at all.

On 03/17/2026, I reported a safety defect in the headlight assemblies of my 2022 Porsche Macan. Dealer inspection at Porsche of Tacoma confirmed small paper fragments marked with arrows lodged inside both headlight housings. The fragments have progressively become dislodged and are now at risk of becoming freely mobile within the sealed assemblies. A loose paper object inside the housing creates a plausible risk of ignition/fire, interference with adaptive headlight aiming or mechanisms, and impaired roadway illumination, any of which could increase the likelihood of crash, injury, or death.…

I was driving the car and warning light âpossible R gear fault-driving permittedâ came on. While driving on a highway at 50 mph, gear shift started malfunctioning and oscillating between 2nd and 4th gears and I could not change the gears. I lost control of the car speed and it would drop to 25-30mph even if I stepped on the gas pedal. It felt like the car would come to a complete standstill on a highway with other cars driving around me at 50-60+ mph. I had my car towed to Porsche dealership. They spent 2 weeks at the dealership and said that they have replaced a transmission valve body.…

Hi - I hope all is well. I have had the below issues with my vehicle and the dealer is saying they cannot replicate them. I do not feel safe driving the vehicle and Iâve been complaining of the same issues since I got it. The speedometer flickers at random start time and when I drive, The radio still goes in and out after it was replaced. The car still randomly turns off at lights or ticket kiosks at the mall. It will ask me to restart the engine. This is insane. I didnât pay for this vehicle to have such a bad and unsafe situation. This needs to be handled.
