The Adaptive Cruise Control keeps faulting randomly and triggering the seatbelt warning ️. Also when the adaptive cruise control fails the cruise control disengaes altogether. This is very dangerous when driving. I have taken this car to the dealership 4 times within 2 months for this problem and no one can fix it.

Received a recall notice from Porsche yesterday regarding a potential wiring problem with the climate control coolant pump that, under certain humid conditions, could result in an electrical short and engine fire. In the notice, they recommend “out of an abundance of caution” to “park the vehicle outside and away from other vehicles or structures”. Sounds serious.
