Electrical system: instrument cluster/panel

What is wrong
On certain 2 door coupe vehicles, the switch console for the porsche active suspension management (pasm) and the traction control (tc-off) switches was inappropriately installed. The leds in the switches can signal a functional change in the pasm mode or the deactivation of traction control even though the switches are not actuated.
Risk
If the traction control or active stability management system are inadvertently disabled, and the subsequent warning lamp illumination in the instrument panel onboard computer is unnoticed by the driver, the safety benefits of these systems would be unavailable to the driver which could increase the possibility of a crash during aggressive driving maneuvers.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the switch console free of charge. The recall began on december 7, 2007. Owners may contact porsche at 1‑800‑767‑7243.
