On Monday, December 1, hundreds of Porsche owners across Russia awoke to discover that their prized German cars had effectively turned into motionless bricks on wheels. Reports now suggest that Porsche’s own Vehicle Tracking System, or VTS, may be at the center of the mystery.

Whether the culprit is a software update gone wrong or a deliberate move from a third party, the outcome is the same. From Moscow to Krasnodar, drivers are finding themselves stranded with cars that refuse to respond.

The issue impacts Porsche models dating back to 2013, all of which have a factory Vehicle Tracking System. If the VTS loses satellite signal, it automatically activates the engine immobilizer and stops the car from working.

Rolf Group service director Yulia Trushkova told the Daily Mail that “all models and all engine types” are affected, with shops fielding waves of identical complaints.

Genesis G90s Recalled for Paint That Can Trick the Sedan into Braking
Car and Driver

• Genesis is recalling certain G90 sedans with Savile Silver paint, which can trick the cars into unnecessarily braking.
• The G90's front corner radars may reflect off the aluminum in the silver paint, and this can trigger the brakes by falsely detecting a vehicle entering the lane.
• Genesis says the issue can be fixed by sealing the front bumper beam.
