The National Highway Traffic Safety

different ratings -

,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints

the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP
|
|
Description:
|
On certain sport utility vehicles, if the ground connection between the spiral ring of the tank filler neck and the connecting pipe to the fuel tank is inadequate, the flow of fuel during refueling can create an electrostatic charge, which could discharge and spark. This spark could ignite fuel vapors in the area outside the tank filler neck that could lead to a muffled detonation. Due to such a startling event, the individual refueling the vehicle could remove the fuel nozzle at precisely the moment of the detonation without first stopping the fueling process. In such a circumstance, fuel escaping outside of the fuel tank may ignite, resulting in a fire. Dealers will inspect the ground connection and, if necessary, correct it. Owner notification began on March 29, 2004. Owners should contact Porsche at 1-800-545-8039.

|
Description:

SEAT BELTS
|
|
Description:
|
Certain passenger cars fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208, (Occupant Crash Protection). All three rear seat positions and the front passenger position are equipped with seat belt retractors that have a locking feature which converts the retractor from an emergency locking retractor (ELR) mode to an automatic locking retractor (ALR) mode for the purposes of child restraint installation. The belt may deactivate the alr mode with certain child restraints. When involved in a crash, the child restraints may not be properly secured increasing the risk of injury or death to the seat occupant. The manufacturer has not yet provided a remedy or owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners should contact Porsche at 1-800-545-8039.
