The drive train consists of an engine, transmission, transfercase, driveshafts and differentials. The transfercase has failed prior to the normal life cycle. Porsche recognizes this problem on this series of suv and extends the warranty for 10 years and unlimited mileage. Porsche announced this extension in june 2024. However this does not cover the early models in this series 2011-2013 with the same drivetrain and transfercase. So in effect this failure of the transfer case is not covered on 2014 - 2011 porsche cayenne's models with the same transfercase because porsche delayed the notification to customers. Even though the suv may have low mileage, they will not warranty or cover my failure.
