1) THE VISIT WORKSHOP LIGHT APPEARED ON MY NEW 2005 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA S. 2) ON NOVEMBER 30, 2004 THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING FINE WITH THE WORKSHOP LIGHT ON. THE VEHICLE THEN SUDDENLY LOST ENGINE POWER AT 65 MPH DURRING ACCELERATION ON THE NJ TURNPIKE. THE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER CAUSED SEVERAL TRACTOR-TRAILERS TO NEARLY COLIDE WITH MY VEHICLE, AND WITH OTHERS, WHILE I PROCEEDED TWORDS THE SHOLDER AREA. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN ABLE TO RUN ENOUGH ON THE SHOLDER AT 15 TO 30 MPH TO A SAFE EXIT OFF THE TURNPIKE. 3) THE VEHICLE IS AT THE RAY CATENA PORSCHE SERVICE AREA IN EDISON NEW JERSEY, AND IT HAS NOT BEEN LOOKED AT, TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE.*AK

S10 DIRECT REPLY LETTER TO THE SECRETARY FROM REGARDING HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HIS 2008 PORSCHE CAYENNE. *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED HE EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS SAFETY PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND BRAKES. THE CONSUMER STATED HE FILED TWO SEPARATE ARBITRATION AGAINST THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER. THE FIRST ARBITRATION CASE WAS SETTLED IN 2009, WITH THE EXPECTATION ALL OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE, CURRENT, PAST AND PRESENT WOULD BE PROPERLY IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED. SINCE THE INITIAL ARBITRATION CASE, THE CONSUMER HAD TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER 11 TIMES FOR THE SAME ELECTRICAL/SOFTWARE PROBLEM. THE ON-GOING PROBLEM UNCONTROLLABLY AFFECTED THE PROPER POSITIONING OF THE OUTSIDE MIRRORS AND THE OVERALL SAFETY ASPECT WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ONBOARD COMPUTER CONTROL MODULE SEVEN TIMES, AS THEIR FIELD TECHNICAL EXPERT SUSPECTED THERE WAS AN UNIDENTIFIABLE ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE OR A COMPUTER RELATED SOFTWARE VIRUS SOMEWHERE WITHIN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE DEALER HAD NO IDEA HOW TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.
