What Happened

Risk if Unfixed
If your seat belt anchor comes loose during a crash, it could fail to restrain the occupant, increasing the risk of injury.

Your authorized Porsche dealer will tighten the seat belt anchor screws and replace them if necessary – all at no cost to you. You'll receive a recall notice by mail, and you should schedule the repair as soon as you get it.
