Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Was looking for some information on my 911 and came across this: Thread with more information if anyone is interested https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/panamera/372594-panamera-breaks-two-frame-welds-defective.html Seems as if the owner won their case via America's lemon laws. Doesn't make me want to run out and buy a Panamera.

POST 2Original post

Yes, I watched the whole lot while waiting for F1 qualifying to start. Disappointing lack of positive response from Porsche, obviously lawyer-controlled and out-waiting the plaintiff.  She's a very smart, determined person who is being frustrated by Porsche's delaying and obfuscating tactics.  Shameful that it should come to this.

POST 3Original post

Disgusting human behaviour. Disgusting! Unfortunately typical.

POST 4Original post

Typical of large corporations against consumers - keep them in the dark -  shame, shame shame !

POST 5Original post

This is absolutely disgraceful.  I was looking up Panameras as the price is dropping thinking it would be a good family car alternative once I no longer have to drag a pram and porta cot about! After seeing that tho -  I dont think so!

Haven't seen you posting for a long time Amanda.   Welcome back (or have I just not been looking where you've been posting???).  If it has been a while, we've still got our 987S that we discussed 4 1/2 years ago (but looking to upgrade to a  981) and I've now got a 996.2 C2 Peter

POST 7Original post

From the headline I expected to see the car in 2 halves... bit of an over exaggeration. Yes it is bad but in the age of the internet we would of heard of any other weld failures surely! Porsche's response well I am not sure, I think there could be more going on here than stated? Either way it would not stop me buying a Panamera. The truth will come out eventually, but as people have said lawyers can stymy a lot of things and muddy the waters.....

Hi Peter, i call in every now and then when working night shift! Oh nice one on the 987. Has it mostly been trouble free for you? Love the 981. But I need a back seat now so it's out of the Q for some time into the future. But I won't be happy till I have a 911 at some point I think! That's what has me call in sometimes! I think a 996 would be a good choice for me too. I thought that too re over exaggerating the split in half bit. . I think every car manufacturer would behave similarly too. Length eise not sure a Pan would fit in our garage!

POST 9Original post

Yes @amanda you are probably right, it is all big business..... manufacturers only let on issues when there is enough "out cry", one case (so far) does not warrant that yet.... You must have a small garage
