## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the lower control arms of the front axle may contain a manufacturing defect which could cause the lower control arms to crack. A crack in the lower control arms could impair vehicle handling during spirited driving which could increase the risk of crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the lower control arms with new updated parts. Note: Porsche recommends to customers that the vehicles not be driven on race tracks until the recall remedy has been completed.
