2014 Porsche Cayman owner complaints

Code P1023 Fuel Pump pressure/ quantity too low at start. Rough Start when engine is cold, high pressure fuel pump appears to be leaking. Replacement part is out of stock, unavailable. Unsafe to drive, could start a fire.

Fuel tank is rubbing against the body causing visible rub marks on the plastic tank itself. This is caused by foam pads either being misplaced or not installed at all from the factory. Porsche themselves have a TSB on it (SB-1403), but they will not handle the fix outside of warranty. This seems like a major safety issue where a plastic component holding flammable fuel is rubbing against the metal body and causing a potential failure point where fuel can leak onto hot components. Porsche has stated this is not a safety issue, but I cannot see how that is possibly the case. Many others online are facing the same issue and are getting quotes of $2k USD for the fix to be carried out. Please look into this as I do not feel safe driving my car knowing that the fuel tank can rub itself to failur

Rear axel carrier side section fractured in half. This can lead to loss of control of the vehicle when driving. Recall was issued for some models/years with specific batches, but mine was not included even though it’s the same issue.

After stopping at a stop light I intended to shift into first gear but when starting to move, the car was actually in reverse gear and almost hit the car behind me. This happened to me multiple times in different a few occasions. I am well trained with manual transmission and my previous 300,000 miles of driving were on similar cars with manual transmission from different vendors. A large number of 981 owners with manual transmission reported similar experience as can be seen in this Porsche 981 forum http://www.planet-9.com/981-chat/90509-accidentally-selected-reverse-stoplight.html the problem happens as a result of two design issues with this car mode: 1. There is no mechanical block that prevents shifting into the reverse gear when intending to shift into first gear (e.g. By

Door panel is warping away from the door frame at the window. This appears to be where the side curtain airbag deploys from.

A small rock came through the front air inlet on drivers side of the car striking the front ac condenser. This caused a loss of freon that both entered the cabin through the system vents and spewed ac oil into the left front of the car, left front tire, etc. This presented a hazard from inhalation of freon gas sucked into the HVAC system as well as the possibility of oil contaminating the front tire or brake assembly no protection (grill,screen, etc) is provided from the factory. The front condensers are highly susceptible to damage. There are at least 10 other reports of this happening online from other 2013 to 2014 boxster and cayman models. My vehicle is a 2014 cayman s, manual transmission. Porsche was unwilling to assist in repairing the vehicle. Cost to repair $1200. *tr

Ignition coil failure on cylinder #3 due to no heat shield between coil & catalyst which is situated just below the coil. This resulted in sudden loss of power and misfires of #3 cylinder. Mechanic states this problem will happen again until a proper heat shield is installed between the coil & the catalyst. I was in traffic at the time on a freeway at a speed of 65 MPH.
