Porsche recalls 918 Spyder For Chassis Defect

Porsche has recalled its 918 hybrid supercar over a potentially dangerous chassis fault, with 205 cars affected globally.

Although no failures have been reported to date, Porsche says it detected the fault during routine quality control testing at a supplier and could not "permanently guarantee" the longevity of the part.

The company refuses to go into detail about which component requires replacement, saying only that it's a part of the 661kW supercar's chassis.

It's not known if the current recall is related to a previous recall concerning the 918's rear control arms.
