- 981 chassis which underpins Boxster and Cayman affected
- 310 units under recall
- Porsche encourages customers to contact their local dealers
German manufacturer Porsche has issued a recall notice for Boxster and Cayman models built between 2012 and 2014.
Affecting a total of 310 units, an apparent manufacturing defect means the vehicle's rear suspension may fail under extreme driving conditions, leading to a loss of control.
Porsche hasn't provided details as to which specific variants of the Boxster and Cayman are affected, but the 310 vehicles under recall represents just under a third of all models sold over the three-year time period, as Porsche shifted 1051 units of the two models between 2012 and 2014.
Any owners of the aforementioned models have been urged to contact their local Porsche Centre to clarify whether their vehicle is affected, with the manufacturer offering to rectify the fault free of charge.
