Porsche 911 Carrera 4S recalls by country

How to check if your Porsche 911 Carrera 4S has a recall

A recall covers specific build dates and vehicle identification numbers (VINs), not every Porsche 911 Carrera 4S on the road. To see whether yours is affected:

1. Look up your VIN or registration on the official recall checker for the country where the car is registered: MLIT (Japan), DVSA (UK), NHTSA (United States), KBA (Germany), EU Safety Gate (Netherlands), NZTA (New Zealand).
2. Ask an authorised Porsche dealer: recall repairs are free, including on used cars and cars serviced elsewhere.
3. Add the car to your watched vehicles on Recaller Book and get an email when a new campaign is published for it.
