IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL
NHTSA RECALL NO. 20E091
December 2020
Dear Valued Öhlins Customer:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Öhlins USA, Inc. has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain Öhlins suspension struts, Part No. POS 5N20, intended for aftermarket installation on certain Porsche models. We are conducting a voluntary safety recall to address the issue.
The recalled front struts were shipped to customers as part of the suspension kits identified below. Each kit contained two of the affected front struts, along with two rear struts, springs, and associated hardware. (These other components are not affected by this recall.)
Distribution records indicate that you may have purchased one or more of the kits that included the recalled front struts. Therefore, please review this letter carefully.
What Products are Involved?
This recall involves Öhlins front struts, Part No. POS 5N20, which were shipped with the following kits:
Kit Part No. | Intended Vehicle Application |
Part No. POZ MN02 | 1999 – 2005 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 and 4S, generation 996 |
Part No. POZ MN05 | 2005 – 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 and 4S, generation 997 |
What is the Problem?
Due to a design compatibility issue related to the interface between the vehicle’s top mount and the strut, the pin of the strut may experience excessive stress during maximum steering, which can lead to fatigue and, potentially, breakage of the pin. If the pin fails, it will result in the separation of the strut from the vehicle and compromise front-wheel control, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
What should you do?
If you own one of the recalled struts, please contact the place of purchase to arrange to receive a new strut, along with a new top mount interface solution that will address the compatibility issue, free of charge. Replacement parts may be ordered by your Öhlins dealer. The new, replacement strut will be either Part No. POS 5N20 or POS 5N21, which are interchangeable. (Replacement Part No. POS 5N20/21 struts will be uniquely and permanently marked to distinguish them from the recalled POS 5N20 parts.)
Recalled part no marking
Replacement product is identified by two parallel marks on top of the pin, visible from the luggage compartment in the installed position.
If you no longer own the vehicle in which these parts were installed, please contact Öhlins and provide the contact information for the new owner so that we can notify them of this recall.
If you previously paid to remedy the specific condition that is the subject of this recall, you may be eligible for reimbursement. Please contact the Warranty Department of Öhlins USA at 1-800-336-9029 or ohlins_us_info@driv.com for more information.
Questions or Concerns?
For the most efficient service, your distributor has been instructed how to manage the return of these parts. As such, they should be your first point of contact related to this recall. If you do not obtain the service required, you may contact Öhlins USA at 1-800-336-9029. If you are unable to obtain a remedy without charge within a reasonable time, you may submit a complaint to: Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE, Washington, DC 20590; or call the toll-free Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424- 9153); or go to https://www.safercar.gov.

If the pin fails, it will result in the separation of the strut from the vehicle and compromise front-wheel control, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
What should you do?
- Product Remaining in Your Inventory: If any of these strut kits remain in your inventory, you should promptly return them to Öhlins for a full refund. Note: It is a violation of federal law to sell the recalled products.
- Products You Sold to Other Resellers: If you sold any of these kits to reselling customers, you must forward a copy of this letter to them within five (5) business days of receipt. The kits should be returned to you, the original point of purchase, for a refund.
- Products You Installed or Sold to Consumers: You must immediately check your sale records to identify any consumers to whom you sold the recalled product and provide that information to Bob Schuetz of Öhlins USA at 1-800-336-9029 or ohlins_us_info@driv.com, so that we may notify them of this recall. As it is not possible to determine whether an installed strut has experienced excess stress during its life, consumers will receive a replacement front strut free of charge, along with a new top mount interface solution that will resolve the incompatibility. The new, replacement strut will be either Part No. POS 5N20 or POS 5N21, which are interchangeable. (Replacement Part No. POS 5N20/21 struts will be uniquely and permanently marked to distinguish them from the recalled POS 5N20 parts.)
When contacted by a consumer, please do the following:
- Inspect the customer’s front struts to confirm that they are covered by this recall. Only POS 5N20 struts without the markings should be replaced;
- If the product is covered, arrange to have the strut replaced with a new Öhlins front strut, Part No. POS 5N20 or POS 5N21, and the new OE / top mount interface solution, all included in a recall kit that will be provided by Öhlins, at no cost to the customer;
- Submit a claim under the Öhlins warranty claims process and according to instructions included in the recall kit.
If you have any questions, please contact Bob Schuetz of Öhlins USA at 1-800-336-9029 or ohlins_us_info@driv.com. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but we are taking this action in the interest of our customers’ personal safety and satisfaction with our products.
