What happened

Porsche Cars North America is recalling certain 2014 Cayman and Cayman S models, 2014-2016 911 GT3 models, 2016 911 GT3 RS and 911 R models, 2018 911 GT3 and 911 GT2 RS models, and 2019 911 GT3 RS, 911 GT3, and 911 GT2 RS models. The Owner's Manual instructions for installing child restraint systems in these vehicles lack sufficient detail for proper installation, which increases the risk of injury to a child occupant in a crash and violates federal safety standards.

Porsche will notify owners and provide a free Owner's Manual supplement with proper child restraint system installation instructions through dealers. The recall began February 7, 2020. Affected owners should contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243 and reference recall number AKC0 to receive the supplement and installation instructions.
