2015 Porsche CAYENNE - EXTERIOR LIGHTING Failure Complaint (#b1750d)

2015 Porsche CAYENNE

  • Date of Incident: Jun-07, 2024
  • Date complaint filed: Dec-10, 2024
  • Failed components: EXTERIOR LIGHTING

June 7-8, 2024 driving in rain, the #17- 25 amp headlight fuse blew, leaving my family and me stranded without headlights in the dark on i-70 highway. When headlights quit during this drive and it became very very dangerous! After getting the 2015 cayenne home, i inspected both headlights. Driver's side headlight had a lot of moisture on the inside of lens. The passenger side headlight had about 1 cup of water inside headlight. Reading about porsche cayenne headlights leaking online, this issue should be a recall. I am going to take to dealership have them work on unrelated recall. I will ask them to inspect cayenne. I can not drive this vehicle during inclimate weather or at night for an emergency or otherwise. I have been really busy at work and personally to take 60 miles to dealership. I have another vehicle i have been driving.
