There are over 3,000 complaints abut the air bags on this model on the internet. I took SUV into dealer to see if air bag was a result of an accident the week before. Dealer charged me $150. Dealer said no it was a defective air bag in steering wheel. I contacted usa headquarters of Porsche, but they said there was no recall yet even though there are over 3,000 vehicles with this defect reported on the internet by an attorney. I contacted the NY attorney general, they told the dealer they should refund my $150 and repair my vehicle. The dealer refused. NY attorney general said I should take them to small claims court. Cost for repair was estimated at $1,200 by dealer to fix defect.

While traveling on one of the main highways of dubai, united arab emirates, a Porsche Cayenne driven by a female uae national was hit on the left hand side of said vehicle by another vehicle causing severe damage to the car and various injuries to the driver. Of the three (3) air bags on said vehicle, not a single one deployed or opened that could surely have lessened the injuries sustained by the driver.
