I called my local Dealer and read them my VIN. They checked their system and confirmed that my car had the fuel line recal done performed. I'm not sure what the last one is, but the control arms effected 86's only I believe. The fuel line recal was pretty important because it would crack over time and spill fuel on the headers. Not sure if anyone is unfamiliar with it, but here is the new style fuel line on my car:

Oh BTW, Porsche SHOULD change it for free if their system shows that your car has not had the recall performed.

Over here, only the safety recalls will be taken care of, since i contacted Porsche ME and emailed the general manager, the local dealer took my car and replaced the fuel hose for free.

The other recalls will not be carried out, such as the headers, but i already had them.
