Porsche Sunroof Defect Settlement

Repair invoices or other records of covered repairs are required for reimbursement claims.

Porsche has agreed to resolve a class action lawsuit regarding defective sunroof draining systems in certain 2014-2023 vehicles. The lawsuit alleges that flaws in the drainage system caused water to leak into the interiors of affected vehicles, leading to expensive repairs for owners and lessees. Plaintiffs claim Porsche was aware of the defect but failed to address the issue or cover repair costs.

While Porsche denies any wrongdoing, the automaker has agreed to a settlement offering:

• Warranty Extensions: Coverage for repairs related to sunroof draining defects.
• Reimbursement for Repairs: Eligible class members can receive reimbursement for repairs made due to the defect, with reimbursement rates varying based on the vehicle’s age and mileage at the time of repair:
  • Less than 6 years old and under 80,000 miles: Higher reimbursement rates.
  • More than 6 years old or over 80,000 miles: Reduced reimbursement rates.
• Nonmonetary Relief: Warranty coverage for certain future repairs.

Reimbursements will be reduced by any goodwill payments or concessions provided by Porsche dealerships or other entities.
