Just took my car in for some PDI warranty items and was told there's a recall on TPMS System noted as "WRS6 Resetting Tyre Pressure Monitoring control unit"

I haven't noticed any issues with my TPMS system.

I'm probably being too critical, but these are the sort of things I feel the Tesla/Rivian/Lucids could push out in an OTA. This is a coding error, push an update...

Porsche dealership is so happy to welcome you IRL.
They don’t like remote work😊

And then it bricks your car, as an OTA did to my Rivian, and you can have it towed to a dealership. With Rivian that also means waiting 3+ weeks for a diagnostic to be run! (Yes, if you're in the PNW a diagnostic takes 3 weeks to be run on a bricked car. They're also booked out on loaners, so enjoy the cheap rental car.)

Porsche can OTA. They want your car so if something goes wrong they can take care of it immediately without needing tows and such.

I’d take the risk rather than deal with going to the actual dealer. (Btw, I’m on my 2nd Rivian and just cancelled my tri-max order that was scheduled to deliver tomorrow as I continue to wait on my delayed Macan. My Rivian was not bricked but my update was slow to rollout on the one you are referencing).
