Is the transfer case failure still a thing for the 22 models and later?

Default Is the transfer case failure still a thing for the 22 models and later?

Initially I thought the transfer case problems was only a thing of the 1st generation Macan but I hear more and more, that it can happen even with the latest models. Does anybody here know what is the deal for the latest models? I have a 23 Macan S and intend to keep it for a long time, I hope I don't have to be worried about some ticking time bomb here

I had my 2016 S done under a recall. Wouldn’t the recall apply to yours?

My suspicion is in the 1-2 years 2022's have been on the road there has not been enough time to see any data to answer that question.

My advice...drive and be happy. If it breaks it breaks. If you owned a different car it would be some other worry. Every car brand/model seems to have its "expensive thing that breaks".

Amen. And have a good extended warranty to handle stuff if/when it comes up.
