Default Recall campaign

Hello. Has anyone heard of a recent recall campaign or this is an April's fools day joke? Recall has to do with suspension parts.

The only one I know of is for the headlight washer nozzle. Or something like that, can't remember exactly.

My understanding is there is a ‘Stop use’ campaign that will be a announced, related to possible suspension damage.

Whether it’s related to the US YouTube incident I’m not sure where the Sachs damper sheared off.

Have been in touch with Porsche GB Central Ops waiting an update

Would be pretty slick if we all get new Coilovers. God knows mine needs some. Being lazy to change may pay off.
