What happened

Porsche is recalling certain 2020 911 model vehicles (Carrera S and 4-series coupes and cabriolets) because a software error may prevent the hazard warning lights from functioning when activated. This creates an increased risk of crashes in hazard situations and means these vehicles do not meet federal safety standards for vehicle lighting.

Porsche will notify owners and dealers will reprogram the control unit at no charge. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243 to arrange service. The recall began February 7, 2020, and Porsche's reference number for this recall is AKC1.
