The issue
On certain vehicles equipped with an optional ski bag, the fastening strap for the ski bag may have been sewn with incorrect thread. This could cause the strap seams to tear in the event of crash, which would increase the risk of injury to the passengers. Correction: Dealers will replace the affected ski bags. Note: 72 of the affected ski bags may have been sold as an accessory part through Porsche Dealers.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules munis d'un sac à skis optionnel, la sangle de fixation du sac à skis pourrait avoir été cousue à l'aide d'un mauvais fil. Cela pourrait faire en sorte que les coutures de la sangle se déchirent en cas d'accident, ce qui augmenterait les risques de blessures pour les passagers. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les sacs à skis visés. Note : Soixante-douze (72) des sacs à skis visés pourraient avoir été vendus comme accessoires par les concessionnaires Porsche.
