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.

Drives great but problems on brand new vehicle

After 2000 KM a rattling noise started, I thought it was just a slight rattle on a heat shield at low RPM, and was only intermittent. The throttle felt odd at times but I just attributed it to me not being accustomed to the transmission. By 2800 KM the rattling noise was very loud and heard all the time. Emergency brake sensor issue. First they blamed bad gas, problem continues after they drain gas and put in new gas. Also I have a 2014 ML63 that I fill up at all the same gas stations, no problems for almost 7 years. Took 3 months - They changed Motor, Turbos and Throttle Body. Told emergency brake sensor will arrive in 30 days. Now after 500KM of driving the rattling sound has returned intermittently and today was very loud, appointment at dealership tomorrow morning. Have owned this vehicle 6 months and only been able to drive it about 10 weeks.

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.

Worst car purchase I have ever made, .....

..... maybe because PORSCHE was supposed to be "the little extra" that I expected from this kind of a luxury vehicle,,, but no. I purchased the car late 2019 and it was delivered to me the 20th of December (2019) so I have now owned my Cayenne for one year and soon 3 months with a today 30 thousand km on the meter. Problems started already from the first week with gear shifter that didn´t want to enter D nor R after starting up, had to turn off and on ignition two or three times before it worked, I thought perhaps I was not holding down the brake pedal hard enough or to hard just because I was not be completely familier yet with the new car...? Then, before reporting this issue, I experienced a couple of times that the car was unlocked and the hatch door wide open when I came to the car in the morning?? Luckily I was at my own house with a good secured parking and with video surveillance so I went through the videos minute by minute and saw the hatch door when it opened.... it was a cat walking under the tail bumper that set off the automatic door opener ... the problem is that my bedroom, where my key was is about 60 meters away from the car?? Also the fuel lid started to open while I was driving on the highway. So. of course I then went to the Porsche Center (3 hours drive) to seek out the problems and after one day at the garage they told me that the problem should now have been resolved by a compleate update of the computer good service and polite personel, top! I drive back home and expected all being as it should BUT... when parking my car in the garage the hatch door opens by it self and scratches off the car paint towards the brick wall..pfff I called the Porsche Center and they promissed to do their very best to solve this and of course to have the door fixed and painted but to give them a bit time while contacting the Porsche main office in order to see if it is a known problem with a solution. Same weekend I went on a beach trip with my family when the car was impossible to open with the electronic key so I took out the manual key but not even that could open the car, it was dead and compleatly locked... Four hours later the Porsche team came with a service car and a Macan to borrow me while my own Cayenne was at the garage, also good service, but now I really started to regret my purchase. The weeks that followed continued with the same problems with basically electronic issues and updates after updates without solving the issues, so I started to communicate with the sales guy and the directour of Porsche to find a solution, I offered even to exchange my Cayenne for a Panemera and pay the differance of more than 100.000 US$ but they offered me in exchange to give me 90.000 US$ for the Cayenne (that I seven months before paid 150.000 US$ for) and delivery of the new car in May-June 2021. By the way, to understand the prices, we are living in Costa Rica, Central America. I still drive the Porsche (with all the problems) since Porsche is not able to fix the shitty Cayenne nor willing to solve it by exchanging it within reasonable terms. I am now waiting for my new BMW X5M Competition, BMW gave me 110.000 US$ for the Cayenne and a discount of 8%, they deliver my new car in April and I get to drive the Cayenne till then without restriction on km or other issues, that is service with respect and honor!! PORSCHE, LEARN YOUR LESSON

This car handles great. Excellent acceleration. The car feels solid. The negative is when the air-conditioner is on high it is very loud. The touch screen is beautiful and vibrant. Super happy that Apple car play is now wireless. I have the Cayenne S and it definitely is faster than the base model. The brakes are better also.
