Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Reported cause
The ferrari problem is a recall for the heat shields.
Leading evidence: 'recall' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'recall' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace motors' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Suggestion
If their sales had plummeted in the early to mid 2000s when the warranties ran out and cars started tanking they would have changed their behavior.
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.

Was driving along last weekend, and saw a Boxster on the side of the road with its forlorn-looking owner sitting on the curb. I pulled over and asked if he needed help. He said a flatbed was on the way. He heard a metallic rattle, and got a warning light, and pulled over right away.
I gave an encouraging--but less than hopeful--thumbs up and a smile, and pulled away slowly.
Anytime, anywhere, eh?
well having had a motor go on mine, not that it may be any consolation to anyone, at least we can replace our motors...
they don't end up like this.
btw, still love mine.
The ferrari problem is a recall for the heat shields. Seems they fail and car goes poof. Probably the guys who lost cars that way get new cars.......maybe......maybe not.
Too bad about the boxster.
ferrari had a press release a weeks back saying that they would rplace all cars that ended up as crispy critters.
too bad pcna wouldn't step up with the rms/ims issue like they did.
I think a big part of the why is that we (Americans mostly) kept buying the new cars even though we knew about the risk. If their sales had plummeted in the early to mid 2000s when the warranties ran out and cars started tanking they would have changed their behavior. The thing is, most of those who bought the used ones and had the failures didn't necessarily buy the new. And those who did bought extended warranties.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
