2 Vehicle Shudder problem of the 2008 Porsche Cayenne

Failure Date: 11/15/2017

My car is garage kept and very low miles (70k+) since I work mostly from home. I suddenly started to hear a bad noise coming from the bottom of the car and could feel the car shaking whenever started to accelerate. Took to a Porsche specialized mechanic that told me it is a recurring issue on the Cayenne. Long store short, spent two thousand dollars to fix the issue.

3 Vehicle Shudder problem of the 2014 Porsche Cayenne

Failure Date: 07/01/2017

Car rattles and shakes significantly (especially the rear wheels) during acceleration. Took the car to dealer informed me that it is the 'transfer box' that has failed and it is a known problem with this car. The issue is so common that Porsche does not have parts available and they are on back order. The wait for the parts to arrive could be in months. This should be a recall.

4 Vehicle Shudder problem of the 2006 Porsche Cayenne

Failure Date: 07/27/2016

2 issues. Like other 2006 Porsche Cayenne's, in normal driving in my neighborhood in 2014 my car started vibrating uncontrollably. Stopped driving and had it towed to the dealer. Turns our the drive train broke at 74,000 miles. Which seems is a systemic problem with all 2006 Cayennes. $2400 to repair. Then last week the coolant water pipes broke draining all the coolant fluid out of the car while it was being driven in normal traffic. Towed to the dealer. I soon learned that there had been 8 class action law suites filed on this problem in I believe 2010 and Porsche set aside $45m without admitting guilt to end the law suit and to fix affected cars; however, you had to have it fixed by the end of 2013. Nobody told me of this problem, especially my dealer where the car sits today as I try to get either the dealer of Porsche of na to support the cost of the fix. So far they are not willing. Cost to repair is $2800. Car has 84 thousand miles. Seems strange that NHTSA since every 2006 Porsche Cayenne has both of these expensive problems. . Read more...

5 Vehicle Shudder problem of the 2005 Porsche Cayenne

Failure Date: 10/01/2008

Transmission will slip during initial acceleration, especially when vehicle has not been driven recently, and vehicle will intermittently have delays in downshifting or acceleration resulting in safety concerns when prompt acceleration is needed (for example, avoid traffic or vehicle running a traffic light). Vehicle also shudders and kicks when the transmission finally engages in such delayed engagement situations. Dealer has not repaired issue despite complaint.
