ANALYSISHow safe is the 2022 Porsche 911 Carrera?

The 2022 Porsche 911 Carrera has not undergone NHTSA crash testing, leaving its direct safety performance unrated by federal agencies. No sibling years of this generation have been tested either, precluding comparative crash-test analysis. Its safety record is marked by a single recall, impacting a structural body component, shared with two other Porsche models. This recall represents the full scope of formal safety actions. Owner complaints remain low, with eight filings distributed across six components; the Fuel/Propulsion System accounts for four of these. No complaints cite a crash, fire, injury, or fatality, and the most recent filing in August 2025 confirms an active, though minimal, record. The vehicle falls into the Light burden band, indicating a low overall volume of recalls and complaints relative to the general vehicle population tracked by NHTSA.
