Car breaking safety issue

My new Cayenne 2020 S had three different issues within the first week. The are four (4) different rattling noises, a dangerous braking issue (sudden jolts forward when you're trying to slow down) and an app that rarely connects. I'm now fighting with the dealership as they say these issues are "normal". Suffice to say, I've filed a complaint with the NHTSA and will pursue other legal and non-legal means until they resolve this. I would strongly recommend not buying the Cayenne. The breaking issue simply makes it unsafe.

A Driver’s SUV

Excellent vehicle. Buy a Cayenne if... -You want the best handling mid-sized SUV in the world. Great handling, road feel, break feel. Look at Car and Driver ratings. -You want a refined, elegant interior (after upgrades) that doesn’t look like a futuristic Japanese robot. -You want a luxury SUV which is less common than an X5 or GLE -You want to have fun, but you also want a big comfy seat. -You want a highly reliable brand. -You can afford to pay over $1000 per year in regular maintenance. Issues to be aware of: 2019 was the first model year. Early builds have some gremlins. Infotainment has occasional bugs, but nothing compared to an X5. Breaks can be crunchy or make squealing noise.

I am 6'3" tall with disproportionately long legs -- brought my 6'5" tall son with. I was concerned about legroom since the specifications don't give driver's legroom. Not to worry plenty of space! Not a clunky SUV ride. Will probably buy one after my wife gets a chance to drive one.

Definitely one of the best SUVs on the Road

Bought my Cayenne in August of 2020. I have about 5000 miles on it now and it has been wonderful. No issues at all, and the build quality really is fantastic. It handles like a dream and even with the base engine it feels extremely quick. The transmission is amazingly fast and responsive. I only which I could go as fast as I want most of the time. I think the complaints about the fingerprints on the high gloss trim are overly dramatic as it is very easy to wipe off. My only complaint is that the start/stop system is very intrusive and you have to disable it each time you start the car. The apple CarPlay sometime has issues, however Porsche products are superior to other cars I have owned, especially when compared to BMW and Mercedes which have really gone downhill in my opinion. It should be noted that Porsche came in second in terms of luxury car reliability after Lexus. I may never own another brand of vehicle for the rest of my life.
