Mine still doesn't show as having been recalled, but I'm certain I'll get a call or a letter in a month or two even though my car shows no obvious signs of problems.

latest update my leased Cadiliac SRX was returnd today and Porsche is paying for my rental until my Macan is released from the port.
My SA stated that this is a new campaign for customers that are involved in the stop sale and awaiting delivery. so I now have a Jeep Cherokee to hold me over. SA also said for me to pay out of pocket and Porsche will reimburse for the total amount.
The dealer also said that cars in port or awaiting delivery will get the part within the next week and I should be getting delivery around 11/25. lets see what happens

We have a Macan S on order which is currently en route to San Diego on November 3. I called my dealer in SoCal and was told Porsche USA has placed a "Stop Sale" on all unsold and undelivered Macans until fixes are made with some fuel line issue.
How accurate is this? Has anyone heard of Porsche placing a stop sale on the Macans?

True, per my understanding. For incoming Macans, Porsche will do the recalls at the Porsche facilities in MD and GA, with Porsche techs, b4 they r shipped to the dealers. Dealers will have enough to do, with their own and their customers' Macans.

Mine was done around Thanksgiving, and shipped to me on Dec 1. What a great, early Christmas present!
We finally decided his name is Rudy, as in Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. Is Rudy a beauty or what!

As expected, Porsche has finally got around to including my Macan in the recall for this issue. I haven't seen anything in the mail yet, but a check of the website with my VIN shows
Look for your cars to be included soon if you haven't already been notified.

Had my Turbo in for the recall/fuel line on December 18. Never did get a recall notice. The Vancouver dealer only received 3 repair kits in December and they have sold/delivered 200+units. The dealer set one aside for me given the amount of business I give them.

OT: Looking for info on the tow hitch cover in your pic. Lost my oem rubber one on a gallop up to Vermont for vacation recently and would like to replace with one that secures via pin (as yours apparently does)..
TIA!
