This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2014 Porsche Cayenne. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, a rattling noise occurred before the vehicle loss power and stalled. During the failure, the check engine warning light had illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer Porsche of new orleans located at 3700 N causeway blvd, metairie, la 70002 who replaced the transmission transfer gear. Approximately 20,000 miles later the failure recurred and the contact was informed that the transfer gear was faulty and needed to be replaced a second time. In addition, the speed sensors in all four wheels were faulty causing the vehicle to randomly slow down and not accelerate. The sensors were replaced and the failure was remedied. The manufacturer was notified of the failures but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 12,000.
Huge lag when pressing on acceleration petal when pulling out into traffic from a stop. It does not happen every time. It is intermittent. It seems to happen more frequently when you are turning right. It does not matter if you push the accelerator down, , or clear to the floor, when it happens you have no power for a couple of seconds. Never had this problem before the government mandate recall for emissions.

Never had this problem before the government mandate recall for emissions. The other issue after the emission recall is the vehicle acc/pas system will error out when cruise engaged and the vehicle needs to accelerate for an incline in the road. There has been couple of times also; rear-ended another vehicle because of acc/pas failure.
I'm in a middle of the street to take a left to another street in ft hood tx and the car sounds like something its lock on the transfer case and dont wanna accelerate
While adaptive cruise control is engaged the vehicle will brake on its own. This occurs when there are no other vehicles or objects in sight. The vehicle applies the brakes hard enough where if another car is following closely it could rear-end my vehicle. I have had the car in to circle Porsche 5-6 times with no resolve. This was first reported to the dealer on June 29, 2015.
