Porsche agreed to a class action lawsuit settlement to resolve claims some of its vehicles were equipped with defective communication management systems that reboot unexpectedly.
According to the Porsche class action lawsuit, some Porsche vehicles were equipped with defective PCM systems that rebooted unexpectedly. Some consumers had to pay out of their own pockets to have these systems repaired, the plaintiffs contend, while others incurred additional out-of-pocket expenses related to the issue.
The PCM system in Porsche vehicles is responsible for all audio, communication and navigation functions in addition to other standard vehicle functions.
Porsche hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to pay an undisclosed sum as part of a settlement to resolve the class action lawsuit.
