Rumbling noises in drivetrain, transfer case bad
2014 Porsche Cayenne transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 17 of 17, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Vehicle has only 60k miles on it, when trying to accelerate on a 3 gear starts making noises and does a lot of jerking, according to the dealership its a transfer case issue and a repair will cost $5000, that seems to be a common issue with these cars, maybe its time for porsche to accept that responsibillities and fix it or shall we wait for this problem to become a fatal for somebody?
When starting to move a noise is heard. Diagnosed as a problem with the transfer case. Transfer case had to be replaced at 42,900 miles.
Failure of transfer case in transmission at 74000 miles. This is a well described problem and there are hundreds of similar complaints on the internet in porsche cayennes. Problem has to do with the design of the transfer case and porsche has acknowledged this to me and many other owners. As a result of the problem the vehicle can lurch forward and also fail to accelerate causing safety issues. Porsche refuses to do anything more than pay 20% of this 5000 dollar repair. I urge the federal safety agency to initiate a formal investigation of this problem and force porsche cars of north america to initiate a recall campaign for the safety of the public and for the thousands of owners like myself who have spent 70000 to 90000 on a premium SUV and are left helpless. Thank you for your assistance.
I'm in a middle of the street to take a left to another street in ft hood tx and the car sounds like something its lock on the transfer case and dont wanna accelerate
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 porsche cayenne. While driving approximately 40 MPH, the transfer case slipped. Porsche of new orleans (3700 n causeway boulevard, metairie, louisiana 70002, (504) 832-2112) was made aware of the failure and diagnosed that the transfer case within the transmission needed to be replaced. In addition, the fuel gauge sensor incorrectly registered the fuel tank as full. Upon a diagnostic assessment, the diagnostic trouble code confirmed the pretense of a faulty fuel gauge module. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 77,000. The VIN was not available.
Car rattles and shakes significantly (especially the rear wheels) during acceleration. Took the car to dealer informed me that it is the 'transfer box' that has failed and it is a known problem with this car. The issue is so common that porsche does not have parts available and they are on back order. The wait for the parts to arrive could be in months. This should be a recall.
