What it saysManufacturers certificate for approved wheels and tires - the affected vehicles are 2025 911s. NHTSA’s full summary ↓
Porsche filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Oct 11, 2024, received May 2, 2024, about the visibility/wiper — 2 documents under this number. It names 5 model years (2020–2024). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

Read by machine from the document NHTSA serves (46 pages), read Sep 30, 2026. A part number is shown only where it matches Porsche’s own catalogue shape, an operation only with its code and time, and a description only where the reader got it whole; anything it could not settle is left out, and the PDF is the record. Times are the manufacturer’s warranty allowances, not a quote. Listings and prices on eBay Motors are the seller’s.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

The contact owns a 2024 Porsche 911. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V809000 (Wheels); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Porsche No. 36-24 a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the No. 36-24 repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every Porsche warranty extension on file lists the ones Porsche has filed.
Which vehicles does No. 36-24 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 5 model years: 2024 Porsche 911, 2023 Porsche 911, 2022 Porsche 911, 2021 Porsche 911, 2020 Porsche 911. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
