Porsche has just announced that it is recalling 2,263 911 Carrera models after internal testing concluded that the tailpipes could crack and fall off on 2012 and 2013 models.
Only the base Carrera and Carrera 4 models equipped only with the standard exhaust system are affected, meaning all Carrera's with optional sports exhaust systems are not under threat of failure.
Cars effected are those manufactured from 7 March 2012 through to 12 November 2012.
According to the recall report, the tailpipe may crack, which can result in the pipe breaking free from the muffler and fall onto the road while you are driving, In such a case, the 911 may become a hazard for other vehicles on the road, increasing the risk of a crash.
