PSA - Workshop Campaign 2012-2014 MT
I filed a Petition with the NHTSA after my reverse lights stopped working due to the actuator failing inside the manual transmission, which I alleged was a manufacturing safety defect.
The investigation is still ongoing, but Porsche has filed a workshop campaign with NHTSA to replace any effected transmissions and send them to Porsche AG for analysis. PDF’s attached.
I encourage every MT owner to check their reverse lights.

Firstly, THANK YOU for your effort.
Is there an indication in the documents, I can’t find any, as to how long this campaign is available, both in terms of mileage and years? I don’t have this problem now, but should it happen, the prospect of a new transmission is very welcome.
It’s almost an incentive to use reverse often. I already prefer backing into parking spaces. So, I’m concerned Porsche will try to limit this quickly. I would almost equate this to the 991.1 GT3 engine issue with subsequent warranty.

Sorry, just had to. I think you knew it was coming.
