1. 1On early 2017 cars, confirm the fuel-system recalls were completed: the fuel-collection-pipe recall (NHTSA 17V054000) and the 2017–2019 fuel-tank/crossmember recall (NHTSA 19V113000).
2. 2Verify the airbag recalls on early cars: 2017 cars carry two campaigns for airbag inflators that may fail to ignite in a crash (NHTSA 16V946000 side, 17V134000 passenger frontal), and 2018 cars a side-airbag impact-sensor recall (NHTSA 19V179000).
3. 3On 2021 cars, confirm the connecting-rod recall (NHTSA 21V200000) was completed: the engine connecting rods may crack and loosen, risking engine damage, a stall, an oil leak, or fire; Porsche replaces the rods or the engine.
4. 4Age-related watch items on the 982 flat-four: water-pump wear, the coolant-reservoir/sensor service bulletin, and weeping engine seals.
