Default Porsche's major recall
Apparently due to faulty seatbelt tensioners.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100427/...nm/india480361

...In recent years, Porsche has repeatedly received top marks from J.D. Power for its industry-leading quality benchmarked in the research and consulting firm's annual benchmark surveys.

Porsche said all 11,300 Panameras would be brought to the mechanic to fix possible faulty seatbelt tensioners....

Remarkable, but couldn't have come at a better time. Too bad the world is too drunk of Toyota Recall to even smell this one.

All 2000 S2000's had a similar recall ten years ago.

Plus this is what? A thousand cars or so? I really have no idea how many Panameras have been built but it's probably similar to the number of sticky-pedal Toyota vehicles built in a matter of days.

...plus recalls happen TO EVERY CAR...regularly.

C'mon, folks. Recalls are nothing new...and this one poses little to no safety threat.

Move along now.

LOL, didn't the CTS-V have a recall?

Yup, airbags!
