Check Engine Light During Test Drive — Fixed With Zi 🚫 “Certified” Porsche, Real Headaches — My $83K CPO Mistake at Porsche Wyoming Valley 🔴 1. Check Engine Light During Test Drive — Fixed With Zip Ties I drove 5.5 hours to test drive a 2020 Panamera GTS (original MSRP $142K). Within minutes, the check engine light came on. Under the hood? Zip ties were used as a temporary fix — not a proper repair. They promised it’d stay off until I got home. It didn’t. The CEL came back the moment I got on the highway after signing. That surprise cost me an extra hotel night, and instead of enjoying my first Porsche, I drove 5.5 hours home with a CEL. ⚠️ CPO doesn’t mean trouble-free. Don’t trust “we fixed it” — even if it’s documented. 🔴 2. CPO = Certified to Pass the Blame I paid $83K for this CPO Porsche with 3 years of warranty, tire/wheel protection, and appearance coverage. I expected peace of mind and Porsche-level quality. Instead, my new car spent its first week at my local dealer to fix that same CEL. ⚠️ CPO inspection should mean more than checking a box. 🔴 3. Undisclosed Accident Damage Missed by 111-Point Inspection Soon after, the driver’s headlight fogged up and malfunctioned every time I washed the car. My local Porsche dealer confirmed broken seals and misaligned bodywork — signs of prior damage and improper repair that the “111-point inspection” totally missed. Porsche Wyoming Valley did send me a free headlight, but I still had to pay $3,000+ for bodywork and installation to make it fit. ⚠️ Even a free part doesn’t fix a missed accident — especially when you pay for it yourself. 🔴 4. Wheel Coating Peeling — Protection Plan Denied Next, the top coat on all four wheels started peeling. I used standard, pH-neutral wheel shampoo. Reached out to my original service contact — ignored. Left voicemails — ignored. Only after escalating to Porsche Cars North America did I finally get a call back from the GM. His response? Blamed me, claiming maybe I used acid-based cleaners. I proved I didn’t — sent photos and product labels. Still denied. I asked for 50% coverage to refinish the wheels. He agreed. I then requested gloss black (instead of matte) due to all the hassle. He agreed again — then suddenly changed his mind. 🔴 5. Then Came the Gag Order — Brushed Off Twice as “Standard” Out of nowhere, the GM offered $500 only, but only if I signed a release. The release wasn’t just standard — it was loaded with legal traps: • Gag clause to silence me from sharing this • Waived all rights to future claims — even for issues not yet discovered • Released them from liability entirely He tried twice to play it off as “standard procedure” for goodwill offers, clearly hoping I wouldn’t read the fine print. I did — word for word. When I asked for reasonable revisions? Denied. His final message: “There really is no reason for you to contact us regarding your vehicle again since you will not be servicing with us.” So after selling me a defective CPO car and missing critical issues during inspection, their final solution was $500 in exchange for silence — and then shutting the door on me completely. — ❗Before you buy from Porsche Wyoming Valley, ask yourself: • Would you buy a Porsche that throws a CEL during the test drive, “fixed” with zip ties? • Would you expect to pay $3,000+ for a “free” headlight to be installed? • Would you trust a CPO inspection that missed signs of prior damage? • Would you sign away your rights for $500 after paying $83,000? • Is this what you expect from a premium brand like Porsche? ⚠️ Final Warning to Buyers (Especially Out-of-State): Don’t trust the CPO badge blindly. Ask for repair documentation. Get third-party inspections. Porsche’s brand means nothing if the dealership behind it refuses to uphold its standards. This experience was anything but premium. More
Johnny was extremely helpful, which was especially appreciated since we were under the gun to select and take delivery on a car in advance of the tariffs about to start.
