All Fuelpropulsion System Complaints
I started my car and about one minute later I heard an explosion from the rear of the vehicle and saw it engulfed in flames.
Two separate instances of fuel line failure and fuel leak in the engine compartment. The first in March 2024 and the second in September 2025. The situations both resulted in fuel leaking on top of the hot engine components. Repair requires removal of the engine and transmission. In 2024 repair time was 9 weeks, in 2025 - 3 weeks. In the first case service was covered under warranty, the second partially covered by extended warranty. Repair costs approximately $6,000 per occasion. Leaking fuel on a hot engine clearly created an unacceptable hazard. The vehicle was serviced, and the defect confirmed, at Porsche of Fort Myers (Florida) on both occasions. Evidence of the problem was identified via fuel smell only - no warning messages in the vehicle occurred.
