The settlement covers both owners that have had an Intermediate Shaft (IMS) failure, and also provides protection for those that have not had this failure.

The settlement provides for reimbursement for repairs according to the following schedule. The amount of reimbursement depends on whether the case was bought new, certified pre-owned (ACPO), or used and on the mileage on the car at the time of the issue.

The settlement also provides towing and car rental expenses up to $200.

NOT required

Plaintiffs claim that the Intermediate Shaft (IMS) on Porsche 911 and Porsche Boxter vehicles is defective and can fail leading to very expensive engine repair bills. Porsche denies the claim, but settled the case prior to trial.
