2020 Porsche Macan Complaints

I was involved in an accident October 12, 2021 in which the passenger side of my car was hit. The damage was from the front passenger door to the rear bumper. The total damage to date 02/18/2022 is approximately $25K. In the incident - not one single air bag deployed. I suffered a concussion as I hit my head upon impact. I reported the incident directly to Porsche within 2 weeks of the accident. I was transparent with all information and provided all requested documents to Porsche. However, I was advised in December that their engineers weren't able to inspect the airbags and the car worked as it was supposed to in the accident. Strangely enough - I am still waiting as of today 02/18/2022 for my car repairs to be completed by the body shop. So there was ample time for Porsche to inspect the airbag system - 4 months to be exact. Porsche touts it's safety as a top selling feature and I am yet to receive a resolution to the incident of the airbags not deploying during the accident.

Rear back up camera distortion makes it virtually unusable and like unsafe. Porsche is aware of the issue as it is disclosed on their legal notice at https://www.porsche.com/usa/legal-notice/

BACK UP CAMERA FAILS INTERMITTENTLY SINCE CAR WAS NEW A YEAR AGO. PORSCHE USA AND DEALER PORSCHE OF SAN DIEGO HAVE REFUSED TO EVEN LOOK INTO PROBLEMS AS I HAVE NOT SUCCEEDED IN BRINGING IT TO DEALER WHEN CAMERA DOESN'T WORK! I HAVE FIXED IT MYSELF TWICE BY HITTING CAMERA ABOVE BUMPER WITH MY HAND. THIS IS DANGEROUS, AND CAR CANNOT SAFELY BE DRIVEN WITHOUT A BACKUP CAMERA. I NOTE FORD IS RECALLING 700000 VEHICLES FOR SIMILAR PROBLEM! WHAT DO I DO? OCCURS WHEN PARKED.
