Question WE07 recall for 991?

This just popped up on my carfax alert page... a new recall for my 2014 C2 991... description below.

#WE07 VOLUNTARY SERVICE ACTION - COVER FOR DOOR
ARRESTER

Anyone know what this is about? Oil change is almost due so I might wait till then. Hopefully it is not too urgent like the instrument cluster update I still need to get.

It's not the best picture but I believe it's this black plastic cover on the door. It can pop out spontaneously and block the door closing. In fact it happened to my car a few months ago and I simply pushed it back into place, thinking that it's a poor quality fitting. I was told that it may affect either 1 or both doors on some cars. My car was both sides replaced.

Mine did too and that got me upset with the dealer

I had this done when in for my first oil change recently along with 3 other software updates, WE18 Control unit for PDCC, WE30 Program DME Control unit, and WE02 Reprogram instrument cluster.


Hopefully all up to date now.

mine used to fall out all the time in my first 991 but hasn't yet in this one. I am taking it in a week from tomorrow for its second oil change and a failure to read oil pressure light (and the oil pressure gauge isn't working) I don't have any dealers real close to my house so I am taking it to the Dealer in Maryland while on "Vacation" there instead of one of the Florida Dealers. I did the same thing last summer with my R8. I am assuming I need all sorts of updates since the car hasn't been to the Dealer in a while.
