My 2011 Porsche Panamera 4 has water coming through the ac vents. I noticed that the passenger rugs are wet and possibly shorting out my electrical modules.
The ac/heater blower was blowing weak making a screeching noise and not blowing well. Porsche checkered it out and generated a report stating I needed a new blower. After obtaining my car back from the dealer water was leaking inside of my car ( does so while stationary and driving, on rainy days or when snow has melted ) under the dashboard. The blower stopped working completely. The report from Porsche did not state any leaks were found. A former Porsche mechanic inspected the blower and found water entering the a/c blower control unit, causing an electrical short circuit in both the blower and resistor, and also observed the extent of the leak in other areas of the vehicle. The below day is an approximate day in June which it occurred. Also, the horn just stopped working.
The horn on my 2011 Porsche Panamera stopped working. I did not know until I needed to use it to avoid a potential accident. The dealer told me the problem is very common on Porsche's with headlight washers. The washer system apparently leaks behind the headlights where the horns sit. Appears to be a problem known by Porsche that, if true, is unquestionably a design defect and a safety concern. Repair required actually replacing the horns.
