Porsche has notified NHTSA of a defect in certain model year 2011 Boxster Spyder 2 door convertible passenger vehicles. It is possible that the locking hook on the sun shield (temporary soft top) may not engage correctly into the lock catch which is positioned on the windscreen frame of the vehicle.

The Consequence: If the sun shield is not fully locked, the sun shield can open when travelling at higher speeds increasing the risk of a crash.

The Remedy: Dealers will have both the locking hook and lock catch replaced with redesigned components. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during April 2010.

Owners may contact M&A Law toll-free at 1.866.789.1664, or click here to fill the online inquiry form, if you or a loved one has been injured due to the defective locking hook.
