2025 PORSCHE 911

Filed Oct 21, 2026


On nine (9) separate occasions the vehicle which is equipped with Lane Keep Assist (LKA) automatically and without operator intervention will engage LKA which causes abrupt and at times uncontrolled steering action which totally surprises the operator. This occurs at random times approximately 40 to 50 miles per hour. I have taken this into the dealer to no avail and each time they say, CAN NOT DUPLICATE. This is a very dangerous safety item which takes temporary control of the car and it takes…

Purchased 2024 carrera S used (1 other owner) no car fax from Porsche down town LA in Dec. in January with around 10k miles. Car is driven just on weekends and now has 12k miles. Two days ago smelled strong raw gas smell and immediately took to Porsche Hawthorne and they confirmed leak in fuel line which as I am reading seem more common and very concerning due to risk of fire - appears a know thing amongst Porsche yet they don’t do anything preventatively about it.

2025 PORSCHE 911

Filed Sep 6, 2026


This is a 2025 Porsche 911. The car came equipped with Land Keep Assist also referred to as LKA. In operation it is at times terrible, and at other times genuinely frightening. The system, without warning, intervenes to change the direction of the vehicle by applying steering input. It is very, very, inaccurate and unreliable. When engaged it often is fooled by gaps in road paint markings and similar imperfections. Unlike Electronic Stability Control which intervenes to assure you can…
