Porsche Just Grounded 548 More GT Cars. Here's What It Means for Values

Same part, same bad batch, same free fix. A second grounding, not a second defect, but it hits the GT cars collectors want most.

Oct 23, 2026 · 2 min read

Porsche owners, check your garage. Porsche has added 548 more 2024 cars to its center-lock wheel "Do Not Drive" recall (NHTSA 26V682), and the list reads like a collector's wish list.

Which cars

  • 911: GT3, GT3 RS, S/T, Turbo, Turbo S and Carrera GTS
  • 718: Cayman GT4 RS and Spyder RS

Only cars with the optional center-lock wheels are affected.

Wait, didn't this already happen?

Yep. This widens the October 2024 recall (24V809, 2,251 cars). Two more cracked center locks turned up in 2026, which showed the first round missed some cars. NHTSA lists the new recall as an expansion of the first one, and Porsche says it's the same part, the same bad supplier batch and the same fix. So this is a second grounding, not a second defect.

The good news: no injuries were reported from this year's cases, and dealers inspect and fix the cars for free.

What it means for the market

This mostly hits the most collectible current GT cars, so expect buyers to ask about it.

  • Selling? Get the recall closed out before you list.
  • Buying any 2024 center-lock car? Run the VIN on NHTSA's recall lookup before you pay.
  • Open recall? That's a fair bargaining point.
  • Fix already done? It should have little lasting effect on values.

Would an old recall on a GT3 RS make you walk away, or just push the price down?
