One problem related to carrier/rack has been reported for the 2004 Porsche 911 Gt3. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I was driving around a corner about 40 mph when the car suddenly spun around. I then saw steam coming from the engine. Upon further inspection there was coolant on the ground. One of the coolant fittings had come completely loose, and all the coolant had leaked out. The only real fix is to weld all the coolant fittings. There are 9 of them and the engine has to be removed to do the welding. It cost me $2500 to fix this defect. This is a safety issue as I was lucky I did not hit any one or any thing. Just pure luck. When you dump large quantities of slippery coolant on to the rear tires it is just a matter of time before someone is killed. This problem is so prevalent that most race tracks won't allow a 996 or 997 gt3, gt2 or turbo on the track until the coolant lines are fixed.
