Porsche and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have announced a safety recall involving the 2010 Panamera sedan. The recall is due to a potentially faulty driver’s seat belt that could become detached in the event of an accident.
Te recall covers all 2010 Porsche Panamera models, including S, 4S and Turbo models. In all, the recall covers 3,176 vehicles.
According to the NHTSA, when the driver’s seat is moved to its extreme forward position, the locking mechanism of the seat belt could become compromised. If a crash occurs while the driver’s seat is in its forward position, the seat belt could detach from its anchoring system.
The NHTSA warns the defect could increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash, although no injuries have been linked to the recall. Dealers will remedy the problem with an additional locking mechanism. Porsche has yet to announce a recall schedule for the problem.
