2014 PORSCHE CAYENNE Complaints

THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS ALL TURNS ON AND MESSAGE COMES UP INDICATING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE TO START. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK GEAR TO UNLOAD SOMEONE AND WITHIN 2 MINS - 5 MINS THE ENGINE WILL STOP AND THE ABOVE MESSAGE APPEARS

WHEN THE SHIFT GEAR IS MOVED FROM DRIVE MODE TO PARK MODE - I WAS HEAR REASONABLY LOUD CLICKING NOISE. SAME WAY MOVING FROM PARK TO NEUTRAL OR DRIVE THE SOUND REOCCURS.

TRANSFER CASE FAILURE AT 91,000 MI. ERRATIC ACCELERATION AND CLUNKING AND JERKING OF VEHICLE WHILE IN MOTION.

AT ABOUT 25,000 THE CAYENNE STARTED MAKING BUMP UPON ACCELERATION AND ESPECIALLY WHEN TURNING. I UNDERSTAND THIS CAN BE A SAFETY ISSUE UNLESS ADDRESSED .THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS THE TRANSFER CASE WHICH WAS REPLACED. NOW WE HAVE 49,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND IT IS STARTING TO EXHIBIT THE SAME TRANSFER CASE SYMPTOMS AS BEFORE. IN GOOGLING THE INTERNET THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE QUITE PREVALENT WITH BOTH THE PORSCHE CAYENNE AND MACAN. MOREOVER, THE COST REPLACE A TRANSFER CASE IS IN THE $5,000 WHEN OUR OF WARRANTY WHICH MY 2014 IS NOW. SINCE THIS IS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM I WOULD HOPE PORSCHE WOULD STEP UP AND RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM AND MAKE GOOD. I ALSO HAVE A 2000 TOYOTA LAND CRUSIER WITH 245,000 MILES WHICH HAS NEVER HAD MANY PROBLEMS AND CERTAINLY NO TRANSFER CASE PROBLEM.

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP GEARS SEEMS TO BE MISSING AND JUMPY BETWEEN 2-5 GEARS, LIKE SHUDDERS ON GEARS. I READ THAT IT'S COMMON PROBLEM WITH CAYENNE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY PORSCHE AS IT IS VERY COSTLY. VEHICLE ONLY HAVE 21,000 MILES.

WHILE ACCELERATING TRANSMISSION SHIFTING FROM 2 TO 5 GEAR, IT SHUDDERS AND POWER LURCHES. SAME WHILE MAKING TURN AT STOP SIGN FROM STOP TO ACCELERATE AT CITY STREET POWER LURCHES. POSSIBLE TO CAUSE T BONE ACCIDENT. HIGH CHANCES OF COMPLETE POWER LOSS DUE TO TRANSMISSION FAILURE DUE TO FAULTY TRANFER CASE RESULTING IN CATASTROPHIC ACCIDENT. ASK PORSCHE TO REPLACE TRANFER CASE WITH NEW DESIGNED TRANFER CASE.

THE EDGES OF THE METAL PART THAT ENSURES CLOSURE OF THE TRUNK IS VERY SHARP. FINGER WAS SLICED ON THIS METAL PART.

HUGE LAG WHEN PRESSING ON ACCELERATION PETAL WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STOP. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME. IT IS INTERMITTENT. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN YOU ARE TURNING RIGHT. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU PUSH THE ACCELERATOR DOWN , , OR CLEAR TO THE FLOOR, WHEN IT HAPPENS YOU HAVE NO POWER FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS. NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THE GOVERNMENT MANDATE RECALL FOR EMISSIONS.

NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THE GOVERNMENT MANDATE RECALL FOR EMISSIONS. THE OTHER ISSUE AFTER THE EMISSION RECALL IS THE VEHICLE ACC/PAS SYSTEM WILL ERROR OUT WHEN CRUISE ENGAGED AND THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO ACCELERATE FOR AN INCLINE IN THE ROAD. THERE HAS BEEN COUPLE OF TIMES ALSO; REAR-ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE BECAUSE OF ACC/PAS FAILURE.

COMMON PROBLEM, THE TRANFER CASE BREAKS DOWN CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL WHILE DRIVING. AS A RESULT OF THE PROBLEM THE VEHICLE CAN LURCH FORWARD AND ALSO FAIL TO ACCELERATE CAUSING SAFETY ISSUES.
