1994 PORSCHE 968 User Comment / Complaint

There exists a known issue with the pinion bearing in the transaxle. this issue has been documented by dealers, consumers, and the manufacturer. to date, there have been hundreds of known failures - considering that porsche produced less than 12,780 of these vehicles worldwide over four years, the ratio of failures is alarmingly high. to date, porsche has rejected claims from consumers for the repair of failed units and continues to ignore the problem which unaddressed can result in catastrophic failure and "could" result in death or serious injury. this is a real safety issue that has gone unresolved long enough. perhaps the small number of units manufactured is to blame for the problem taking so long to surface as a widepread issue, but there is a growing number of people reporting this failure on various online forums and communities. originally thought to have affected on a handful of units, the number keeps growing and has reached a level where a recall should be issued for all units. please feel free to visit www.968.net for a taste of angry owners.
