The problem
Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2025 911 vehicles. A software error in the front-end electronics control module may result in the low beam headlights creating a glare for oncoming traffic. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
Excessive glare can decrease the visibility to oncoming drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will update the front-end electronics control module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 1, 2025. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is ASA1.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-888-275-9153) or go to nhtsa.gov.
