2026 Porsche Cayenne Coupe. The surround-view and rear backup camera system repeatedly fails. The screen goes completely black, including when shifting into reverse. The Coupe's shortened, sloped rear window creates major blind spots, so the driver depends on the cameras. When they fail, there is effectively no rear visibility. First reported to the dealer 08/20/2026. Each time the cameras fail, Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth also fail and remain unusable, leaving no hands-free phone or navigation while driving. Safety risk: Several times in grocery store parking lots, I could not see pedestrians…
The warning system continues to showing warnings and the Blind Spot and Adaptive Cruise Control render the car unsafe to drive. The other warnings has no impact of the functioning of the cars ability to be driven. After many false warnings, my wife almost ran a car off the road the first time the blind spot failure waring appeared as she had not notice it.
The emergency braking system light and the adaptive control cruise control is not working in the warning. Lights are on from Dave that I’ve got it from day one January 2026.
1. Driving Conditions & Baseline State I was operating my new 2026 Porsche Cayenne (current mileage approx. 717 miles) at highway speeds inside a tunnel near LAX.

The dashboard abruptly displayed an Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) error/failure warning, along with auto start/stop failure. Immediately…
On 3 separate occasions while making a left hand turn against traffic, the car has initiated emergency braking and shown the ‘collision warning’ alert on the dashboard. Each time there were no cars approaching and the car halted to a complete stop. The first two instances I had my 10 year old in the car. Tonight I was alone. It is terrifying and I know this is not a rare occurrence with Porsches. An online forum has tons of other Porsche owners saying the same thing and we are being encouraged to file a report with NHTSA.

To see whether a recall is still open on your car, enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls (U.S.) or your registration at check-vehicle-recalls.service.gov.uk (UK). Had a safety problem? Report it to NHTSA; complaints are what trigger investigations and recalls.
