What is wrong
Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2022-2023 911 GT3 Touring vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Simultaneous activation of both center high-mounted brake lights may cause confusion for other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
