We purchased Porsche Panamera 4s 2009 from Porsche Colchester a year ago. During the test drive, just before we bought this vehicle, we heard the noise while braking, but we have been assured, by the sales man, that everything will be sorted before we receive the car. It has never happened and what we got is the vehicle with obvious fault. It brakes like a large school bus, the noise is unbearable.
We left Panamer at the service few weeks after the purchase, problem has still occurred, they did nothing at all. Overall, using this car for a year, it has been at the service Colchester several times due to the noisy brakes, it spent over a month there and nothing got sorted at all.
Porsche Centre Colchester says that ''Porsche is aware of the problem, however they haven't found the solution yet''. The car is still under the dealer's guarantee, however they refused to fix this fault explaining that they simply can't fix.
Last time we left this car with them, two weeks ago, they emailed us a video where one of the employees explains that when the pads and discs would be replaced, the noise would disappear.
Next day after I asked if that would be sorted under the guarantee as the problem persists from the very beginning, I have been emailed by the service manager who said:
I have had it confirmed that replacing the brake discs and pads will not rectify the noise from the brakes in the long term.
I am not satisfied with this explanation, it means that Porsche makes faulty cars and they don't want to admit it. This is our fourth Porsche and they still treat us like nothing. Well done! Excellent customer service"¦.
