Porsche announced that they have identified the cause of 911 GT3’s fire risk. Porsche had just announced that the 911 GT3 would be delayed for several months, but engineers have now discovered what is causing the 911 GT3’s fire hazard. Porsche is currently testing the fix and has not disclosed the details.
Porsche advised all 911 GT3 (991) owners to cease driving their 911 GT3 (991) vehicles. The recall was initiated after two cars caught fire in Europe several weeks ago. They will notify existing owners of the technical solution “shortly”. Two cars were affected by a cracked engine block that leaked oil into their hot exhaust systems. Fortunately, these two incidents were not related to any injuries or accidents.
