## What is wrong

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. \(Porsche\) is recalling certain 2017 911 Carrera Cabriolet, 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet, 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet, 911 Carrera S Cabriolet, 911 Targa S, 911 Targa 4S, 911 Turbo Cabriolet, 718 Boxter and 718 Boxter S vehicles.  During manufacturing, the windshield may not have been properly bonded to the vehicle, allowing it to detach in a crash.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard \(FMVSS\) number 212, "Windshield Mounting."


## What can happen

In the event of a crash, if the windshield separates from the vehicle, it can increase the risk of injury.


## The remedy

Porsche will notify owners, and dealers will rebond the windshield, free of charge.  The recall began on May 12, 2016.  Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1\-800\-767\-7243.  Porsche's number for the recall is AH04.


## Notes
