Received a recall notice from Porsche yesterday regarding a potential wiring problem with the climate control coolant pump that, under certain humid conditions, could result in an electrical short and engine fire. In the notice, they recommend -€œout of an abundance of caution-€ to -€œpark the vehicle outside and away from other vehicles or structures-€. Sounds serious. Called my Porsche dealer in Atlanta to schedule an appointment ASAP to get the problem repaired. The repair parts are unavailable and they don-€™t know when they will be shipped. Was told that it could be a month or more before they know. My complaint is not the defect (which Porsche identified); but, the manner in which this is being handled. Parts for a defect that sounds this serious should be available before sending ominous-sounding recall notices to customers.
