Service bulletin TSB-10-09

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

PORSCHE: THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY OF EXCESSIVE CLAMPING FORCE ON THE CLAMPS ON THE FRONT MUFFLER INCREASING THE FORCE OF VIBRATIONS ON THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. AS A RESULT, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE EXHAUST PIPES ON THE REAR MUFFLERS CAN CRACK ON VEHICLES WITH HIGH MILEAGE. THIS CAN CAUSE NOISES AND LEAKS AT THE REAR MUFFLERS. *PE
