Problem: Certain 2 door coupe and convertible vehicles may have been supplied with a tailpipe that may have been produced with a weld located between the fastening clip and exhaust pipe, which is inadequately dimensioned. Also included are certain accessory exhaust pipes installed by dealers.
Risk: If the weld completely fails, the exhaust pipe can detach from the vehicle, which could startle the driver resulting in a crash.
Fix: Dealers will install a new tailpipe with a longer seam weld free of charge. The recall began on january 24, 2006. Owners may contact porsche at 1-800-545-8039.
