Had problem investigated and was told it was a transmission sensor which was repaired but failed to fix problem.

MY CAR A PANAMERA S 2014 IS SHOWING THE ISSUES PRESENTED IN THE SAFETY RECALL 19V-446. IF I MOVE THE SHIFT LEVEL TO "PARK" POSITION AND REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY, THE CAR IS NOT REALLY IN "PARK". IF THE THE CAR IS IN A SLOPE IT WILL MOVE. I PUT MY VIN NUMBER IN YOUR SITE AND PORSCHE SITE AND IS INDICATED THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY CAR. MY CAR IS DOING THE PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN THE SAFETY RECALL AND IS WITHIN THE RANGE OF PANAMERAS WITH THIS ISSUE ACCORDING TO YOUR RECALL, BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MY CAR IS NOT INCLUDED. I CALLED MY LOCAL PORSCHE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT GIVEN MY VIN NUMBER HAS NOT BEEN FORMALLY RECALLED BY PORSCHE THEY CAN'T HELP ME. THIS SITUATION MIGHT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF I FORGOT TO USE THE "PARKING BRAKE" OR IF THE "PARKING BRAKE" FAIL. THIS IS A SERIOUS RISK OF ROLLAWAY, THE CAR CAN UNEXPECTEDLY MOVE. I NEED YOUR HELP TO INCLUDE MY VIN NUMBER IN THIS RECALL.

I called the Porsche dealer regarding my open recall and they are unable to check my vehicle for 2 months. That is unacceptable. What are my next steps?

ON JUNE 21 I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR MY 2014 PORSCHE PANAMERA, FOR A DEFECT WHICH COULD CAUSE IT TO CATCH FIRE WHILE PARKED. PORSCHE NORTH AMERICA HAS NOT YET ISSUED A FIX AND CAN PROVIDE NO FORECAST OF WHEN THE FIX WILL BE AVAILABLE. WITH SUCH A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERN, THERE SHOULD BE MORE PRESSURE ON PORSCHE TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

MY 2014 PANAMERA 4 STARTED HAVING THIS ISSUE ON 10/09/2019. I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK AND FOUND THAT THE CAR WAS STILL MOVING LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. I HAVE TO SET THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON THE CAR BEFORE LEAVING IT OR IT MIGHT ROLL DOWN THE STREET AND INTO TRAFFIC. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT HAS TO BE TIED TO THE RECALL 19V-446.
