Macan EV Charger Cover Flap Not Flush

[jsclarke]

We are in Southern California, and are willing to wait 6 months for an acknowledgment and prescribed fix from the factory. We took delivery of our 4S on 12/23.

It seems strange to me that Porsche gets the hard stuff right but gets some "simple" things wrong. The car drives like nothing in it's class- by a mile. And yet- alignment of a filler flap- something EVERY manufacturer gets spot on- is a fail and slips through quality control. We've had issues like this on 2 other new Porsches. Oh well...

I still don’t get this thread continuing the way it has. I picked up my 4 on October 5 and noticed the issue. Brought it back to the dealer on October 12 and the service manager turned a screwdriver twice on each door to fix it. Took all of 3 minutes.

can’t believe people are talking recalls and matching paint colors.

sorry, I’m just confused at a problem that seems blown out of control relative to my experience.

Just because yours could be fixed by the dealership with a screwdriver doesn't mean others can.

It is being a bit blown out of proportion, though. It's really not a big deal and it'll get fixed.

This is unacceptable quality issue on a Porsche coming out of a German factory. I just got a Macan RWD for a day and looking in the rear view mirror, the manual flap is not flush.

This is not acceptable on the passenger side flap. The other side was flush.

This is not a Tiguan after all, where they pull this kind of stuff all day long.

We need to keep this thread going as this should not be happening and hopefully anyone who got it fixed can share what was the solution.
