Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Porsche Cars North America is recalling certain 2011 and 2012 Porsche models manufactured between May 31, 2011 and June 10, 2011, including the 911 Speedster, 911 GTS RS 4.0, Boxster, Cayman, 911 Carrera, 911 Targa 4, and 911 Turbo models. The recall affects vehicles with seat belt anchor plates that have mounting holes that are too small, which may prevent the anchor plate from rotating properly around the fastening bolt as designed. This could cause the seat belt to not route optimally around an occupant or potentially loosen over time, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.
Porsche will notify affected owners and dealers will inspect the seat belt anchors and replace them if necessary at no cost. Owners of recalled vehicles should contact Porsche at 1-800-767-7243 to arrange service.
