Porsche has recalled 243 units of high-end Panamera cars over a design defect that could see them burst into flames.
The list includes 97A, 97B, or 97C, released between 2015 and 2021.
Panamera prices range are from $169,620 to $416,790 for the 2021 series, according to CarsGuide.
Moisture may seep into the control unit of the auxiliary coolant pump in the affected vehicles, which can lead to electrical short circuits and set them on fire.
Thus, drivers, passengers, and onlookers could all be put at risk.
Pressing the "auto rest" button in the center console should be avoided until a replacement pump has been installed.
The company advised owners of affected cars to temporarily park their Porsche outdoors and a distance away from other vehicles and buildings to minimize any possible risk.
Owners can contact their preferred Official Porsche Centre to arrange an inspection and repair of their vehicle, free of charge.
