## What is wrong

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. \(Porsche\) is recalling certain 2017\-2018 Macan, Macan Turbo Kits, Macan GTS, 2015\-2018 Macan S, and Macan Turbo vehicles.  The front passenger seat occupancy sensor mat may degrade and fail to detect a passenger in the front seat.


## What can happen

The air bag will not deploy during a crash if a front passenger is undetected, increasing the risk of injury.


## The remedy

Porsche will notify owners, and dealers will replace the sensor mat and seat cushion, free of charge.   Owner notification letters were mailed October 25, 2021.  Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1\-800\-767\-7243.  Porsche's number for this recall is AMA2.
